I did not even get far enough with redirects to notice an issue with
IE vs. FF. Redirects worked on FF, but I ended up creating an
"ensureHTTPS" file and "ensureHTTP" file, and including them as
appropriate on all pages. Ugly maintenance when you need to include
one or the other on every page. Two access files took care of
everything. Also, I think php will load the whole page and then
execute the redirect, which is unnecessary work.
