Solution: How to tell if page was called secure or not

[Kyle Cook <kyle@invisio.com>]

Thanks to all that responded to this email.

Ryan Hertz gave me what I needed.

The original problem dealt with javascript mousovers and not
the typical <img src= tags.
Minivend does indeed call images via http or https as needed
for these standard tags,
but it doesn't understand javascript with a line such as this

infoafil_F2.src = "pic.gif";
