Detect HTTP or HTTPS then force HTTPS in JavaScript

Question

Is there any way to detect HTTP or HTTPS and then force usage of HTTPS with JavaScript   I have some codes for detecting the HTTP or HTTPS but I can t force it to use https     I m using the window location protocol property to set whatever the site is to https  then refresh the page to hopefully reload a new https ed URL loaded into the browser   if  window location protocol     https         window location protocol    https       window location reload

Try this  if  location protocol      https          location replace  https   location href substring location protocol length          location href   blah adds this redirect to the browser history  If the user hits the back button  they will be redirected back to the the same page  It is better to use location replace as it doesn t add this redirect to the browser history

The below code assumes that the variable  str  contains your http        string  It checks to see if it is https and if true does nothing  However if it is http it replaces http with https   x000D   x000D  if  str indexOf  https       -1      str   str replace  http    https     x000D   x000D   x000D

I have just had all the script variations tested by Pui Cdm   included answers above and many others using php  htaccess  server configuration  and Javascript  the results are that the script    lt script type  text javascript  gt          function showProtocall             if  window location protocol     https                 window location    https       window location href substring window location protocol length  window location href length               window location reload                        showProtocall     lt  script gt     provided by vivek-srivastava works best and you can add further security in java script
