I'm trying to illustrate to students how https is used in java. But i have the feeling my example is not really the best out there...
The code works well on my windows 7: I start the server, go to https://localhost:8080/somefile.txt and i get asked to trust the certificate, and all goes well.
When I try over http (before or after accepting the certificate) I just get a blank page, which is ok for me.
BUT when I try the exact same thing on my windows XP: Same thing, all goes well. But then (after accepting the certificate first), I'm also able to get all the the files through http! (if I first try http before https followed by accepting the certificate, I get no answer..)
I tried refreshing, hard refreshing a million times but this should not be working, right?
Is there something wrong in my code? I'm not sure if I use the right approach to implement https here...
