Great! Thanks a lot. I got it. People have already work on this. RFC2817 is pretty comprehensive.
It seems you didn't get my point, let me put in this way. Over a normal http connection (port 80), after the first request & response, the server sends "hello request". Is it easy for the broswer & tomcat turn the normal connection into ssl connection (still on port 80)? Thank you for your time.
