How to redirect from http to https

[teclance]

Hi guys,

I am running oscommerce and I have a SSL installed.

There are certain pages that I only want accessible via https so if any one types in: http://sitename.com/account.php it will redirect to https://sitename.com/account.php

I tried using .htaccess to do this by entering:
Redirect /account https://sitename.com/account.php
but the site keeps looping and never loads.

Any suggestions is appreciated.

Mod rewrite would be an easy and quick way, google it there are some tutorials that would make it really easy. If you cant get it after that PM me I can help.

Here ya go...put this in a .htaccess file in the root of the public folder for the non-secure URL:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R,L]
