Hi,

I'd like to know how I can deny non-ssl(non-https) access to my login
page, but after user logging in, normal http should be used.

Should it be set at my web page or at the my web server (OC4J
container) level?
Now I have both http and https on the web server enabled, but the
tester can access the non-secured login page by manually typing in
"http://....".

Any hints? Thanks.

I suggest you ask in the appropriate comp.infosystems.www.authoring.*
newsgroups.
