Not sure what you mean that the browser detects the
certificate and then changes to https.  Also the
standard https port is 443 and not 8443, so I'm not
sure how anything would automatically think
https://www.app2.com would be linked to
https://www.app2.com:8443 when the default would be
https://www.app2.com:443 (https://www.app2.com).  I
can't tell you why it works in FF, but given what you
have provided I would not expect FF to work actually. 
Are you using a redirect or javascript to reload the
page or something to redirect the http to your https
site?
