Capture current URL and secure status?

[Peter M Dodge]

Basically, I'm doing this now using a PHP hack, and I'm wondering if there's a way I can do it "better" with Smarty.

 

For secure status right now I have:

 

{php}

$https = isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']);

if ($https)

{

{/php}

<secure code>

{php}

}

else

{

{/php}

<insecure code>

{php}

}

{/php}

 

Is there a better way to do that?

 

Likewise, is there a way to capture the current base domain without a similar PHP hack, in Smarty?

 

I have .ca and .net names for my site and I basically want to output a base tag with the proper TLD.

 

I tried poking around in the documentation but it's .. pretty thin unforuntately.

you can do this with a hook "ClientAreaPage"

or you can just set whmcs to serve only secure pages and stop the need to check at the source.

 

also its bad practice to use php in templates, the idea of a template lay out is to seperate the logic from the style. using hooks as suggested might be the best way if you really must perform this check

{if $smarty.server.HTTPS}
<!-- secure code here -->
{else}
<!-- non-secure code -->
{/if}

Thanks Frank, that looks like the best way to get it.

 

Is there a way to get the domain serving the page without hooks? I experimented with it but the overhead was poor compared to just PHP code.
