RE: [cobalt-developers] Forcing HTTPS for certain parts of a site

["KAMRY" <kamry1888@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yes very nice decision, could you post it :)) See I came up with I posted
after a long search a long time ago, but I don't know how to reverse the
logic although I thought about this and that what I was looking for, but I
don't have much knowledge with mod_rewrite and how the order should be and
what I can add/delete nor I know how to make it http for all other folders.

I appreciate it if you post the solution.

Well, why don't you just reverse the logic of the above?  "If the hit comes
over SSL and it's not in folderToBeSecured, then redirect to non-SSL"
