Well, if they're actually the same page but on different ports (80 for  
http, ?? for https) I'd use a server side redirect rather than a  
client-side.

I'd think that with some of the SERVER variables you could do  
something like

<?php if ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] == 80) {
	//Construct a variable pointing back to the same name under https
	$server = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
	$page = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
	header['location: https://$server/$page/'];
} ?>

(And I'm certain that is not correct code, but it's where I'd start  
and fiddle with it from there...)
