Hi !

My first project at work I tried to use Tapestry for was canceled because of 
deadline constraints and some https-issues I could not solve at that time.

Ok, so I went back to Tapestry in my spare time - I think this framework is 
absolutely great. I want to use it for projects at work.

And now (getting around the Login-Page :) ) time is come to implement secure 
connections again :(

And I still have absolutely no idea, how to do this.

The 'scheme' binding used on links doesn't work for me - so there is no build 
in support for https in my point of view. Kent Tong gave me some hints at that 
time (building an own LinkRenderer) but I gave up because it got to complicated.

Why does the included scheme binding not work for me ? 

Examples:

Tomcat on local machine, port 8080. The link rendered when using https-scheme 
looks like:

https://localhost:8080/myApp/my.page :(

Using Apache as a proxy running on port 80, forwarding to localhost on port 
8080, the link looks like:

https://mydomain:80/myApp/my.page :(

When using an own LinkRenderer I could solve this problem - but then I have to 
use this Renderer on all links on my site - not to comfortable.

So for me, Tapestry doesn't do the job (maybe there is a solution I am not 
aware of - so please tell it to me :) ).

Currently my planning is to move all secured pages in /WEB-INF/secure and use 
Apache as an proxy to forward this path to https (anyone aware of a source for 
downloading Apache binary with included ssl-support for Windows ? :) ).

But I am almost sure, that there is a solution out there.

So it would be great, if anyone could give me some hints (links or keywords) 
how to implement https 'the clever way' :)

Many thanks !!
Gerald
