I have a script that is being created to login users using php. The script has a line to force the https protocal. This works well with Mozilla but breaks with IExplorer. Really odd. I cannot produce the script to have someone troubleshoot it but I can say it uses a "view_file.php" in the path to hide a protected directory. A link to a page would be something like https://domain/script_directory/view_file.php?file=the_file. IE can load the pages above the protected directory but cannot load links to the protected directory. Mozilla has no problem with any of this. Can anyone give me an idea of what could be going on here? Thanks for your time, jeff

Why not just use include files from the password protected directories. As far as forcing https, you can use a redirect.
