In JSP How to get the protocol name.?

Question

That is http or https. And also is there a method to set this.

Answer 1

It looks like on the request variable you have a request.getProtocal(). That should return you the protocal that was used on the request.

You really cannot set the protocal on the fly (it would probably be on the response and I saw nothing on the response that has a response.getProtocal()). I would imagine you'd need to forward them to an https or http page first that would force the protocal to be set.
