`location.protocol` should do it for you.

(as in:

    if (location.protocol === &#39;https:&#39;) {
        // page is secure
    }

)

You should be able to check `document.location.protocol` to see if it&#39;s &quot;http:&quot; or &quot;https:&quot;


While location.protocol should do it for you as Peter Stone mentioned, but you shouldn&#39;t rely on Javascript for any true security, etc.  

I think the value with be &quot;https:&quot; for location.protocol if you are on SSL.

SQLAlchemy&#39;s `DateTime` type allows for a `timezone=True` argument to save a non-naive datetime object to the database, and to return it as such. Is there any way to modify the timezone of the `tzinfo` that SQLAlchemy passes in so it could be, for instance, UTC? I realize that I could just use `default=datetime.datetime.utcnow`; however, this is a naive time that would happily accept someone passing in a naive localtime-based datetime, even if I used `timezone=True` with it, because it makes local or UTC time non-naive without having a base timezone to normalize it with. I have tried (using [pytz][1]) to make the datetime object non-naive, but when I save this to the DB it comes back as naive.

Note how datetime.datetime.utcnow does not work with `timezone=True` so well:

    import sqlalchemy as sa
    from sqlalchemy.sql import select
    import datetime

    metadata = sa.MetaData(&#39;postgres://user:pass@machine/db&#39;)

    data_table = sa.Table(&#39;data&#39;, metadata,
        sa.Column(&#39;id&#39;,   sa.types.Integer, primary_key=True),
        sa.Column(&#39;date&#39;, sa.types.DateTime(timezone=True), default=datetime.datetime.utcnow)
    )

    metadata.create_all()

    engine = metadata.bind
    conn = engine.connect()
    result = conn.execute(data_table.insert().values(id=1))

    s = select([data_table])
    result = conn.execute(s)
    row = result.fetchone()
&gt; (1, datetime.datetime(2009, 1, 6, 0, 9, 36, 891887))

    row[1].utcoffset()
&gt; datetime.timedelta(-1, 64800) # that&#39;s my localtime offset!!

    datetime.datetime.now(tz=pytz.timezone(&quot;US/Central&quot;))
&gt; datetime.timedelta(-1, 64800)

    datetime.datetime.now(tz=pytz.timezone(&quot;UTC&quot;))
&gt; datetime.timedelta(0) #UTC

Even if I change it to explicitly use UTC:

...
    
    data_table = sa.Table(&#39;data&#39;, metadata,
        sa.Column(&#39;id&#39;,   sa.types.Integer, primary_key=True),
        sa.Column(&#39;date&#39;, sa.types.DateTime(timezone=True), default=datetime.datetime.now(tz=pytz.timezone(&#39;UTC&#39;)))
    )

    row[1].utcoffset()
...
&gt; datetime.timedelta(-1, 64800) # it did not use the timezone I explicitly added

Or if I drop the `timezone=True`:

...

    data_table = sa.Table(&#39;data&#39;, metadata,
        sa.Column(&#39;id&#39;,   sa.types.Integer, primary_key=True),
        sa.Column(&#39;date&#39;, sa.types.DateTime(), default=datetime.datetime.now(tz=pytz.timezone(&#39;UTC&#39;)))
    )
    
    row[1].utcoffset() is None
...
&gt; True # it didn&#39;t even save a timezone to the db this time

How could I get the current h/m/s AM time into a string? And maybe also the date in numeric form (01/02/09) into another one?

I want to know if the page is being accessed via http or https using JavaScript.  Is there some sort of isSecure() method, or should I just parse it out of the URL somehow?

I want to use a PHP variable in JavaScript. How is it possible?

I have an HTML element with a large collection of unordered lists contained within it. I need to clone this element to place elsewhere on the page with different styles added (this is simple enough using jQuery).  

    $(&quot;#MainConfig&quot;).clone(false).appendTo($(&quot;#smallConfig&quot;));

The problem, however, is that all the lists and their associated list items have IDs and `clone` duplicates them. Is there an easy way to replace all these duplicate IDs using jQuery before appending?

jQuery clone duplicate IDs

I&#39;m using Zend_Form to output a set group of checkboxes:

    &lt;label style=&quot;white-space: nowrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;input type=&quot;checkbox&quot; name=&quot;user_group[]&quot; id=&quot;user_group-20&quot; value=&quot;20&quot;&gt;This Group&lt;/label&gt;

With a normal HTTP Post these values are passed as an array, but when I&#39;m somewhat stumped on how to grab all the values using jQuery. I figured I can select the group using:

    $(&quot;input[@name=&#39;user_group[]&#39;]&quot;).val()

but that just grabs the value of the first checkbox in the list regardless of if it is checked of not. Any ideas?

I&#39;m learning JavaScript and while browsing through the jQuery library I see `:` (colon) being used a lot. What is this used for in JavaScript? 

    // Return an array of filtered elements (r)
    // and the modified expression string (t)
       return { r: r, t: t };

What does &#39;:&#39; (colon) do in JavaScript?

Is there a way that I can get the last value (based on the &#39;\&#39; symbol) from a full path?

Example:

`C:\Documents and Settings\img\recycled log.jpg`

With this case, I just want to get `recycled log.jpg` from the full path in JavaScript.

When sending the user to a checkout page, they are switched from `http://sitename.com` to `https://sitename.com`.

 As a result, `$_SESSION` variables are lost.

The site has a valid SSL certificate which may or may not be of some use.

Session lost when switching from HTTP to HTTPS in PHP

Are all URLs encrypted when using TLS/SSL (HTTPS) encryption? I would like to know because I want all URL data to be hidden when using TLS/SSL (HTTPS).

If TLS/SSL gives you total URL encryption then I don&#39;t have to worry about hiding confidential information from URLs.


Are HTTPS URLs encrypted?

Is it possible to have HTTPS connections over proxy servers?  If yes, what kind of proxy server allows this?

Duplicated with [How to use Socks 5 proxy with Apache HTTP Client 4?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22937983/how-to-use-socks-5-proxy-with-apache-http-client-4)

HTTPS connections over proxy servers

I am currently integrating with a system created by a 3rd party. This system requires me to send a request using XML/HTTPS. The 3rd party send me the certificate and I installed it

I use the following code:

    using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
    {
       client.Headers.Add(HttpRequestHeader.ContentType, &quot;text/xml&quot;);
                
       System.Text.ASCIIEncoding  encoding=new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding();
       var response = client.UploadData(address, &quot;POST&quot;, encoding.GetBytes(msg));
    }

This code returns the following `WebException`:

&gt;The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.

**UPDATE** Because it&#39;s a test server I am working against, the certificate isn&#39;t trusted and validation fails... To bypass this in test/debug environment, create a new `ServerCertificateValidationCallback`

    ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback += new System.Net.Security.RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(bypassAllCertificateStuff);

and here is my &quot;fake&quot; callback

    private static bool bypassAllCertificateStuff(object sender, X509Certificate cert, X509Chain chain, System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors error)
    {
       return true;
    }

WebClient + HTTPS Issues

I have the following element:

    &lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn.example.com/js_file.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

In this case the site is HTTPS, but the site may also be just HTTP. (The JS file is on another domain.) I&#39;m wondering if it&#39;s valid to do the following for convenience sake:

    &lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; src=&quot;//cdn.example.com/js_file.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

I&#39;m wondering if it&#39;s valid to remove the `http:` or `https:`?

It seems to work everywhere I have tested, but are there any cases where it doesn&#39;t work?
