Security Basics: Detect browser TLS settings on client-side and tell it to the server

[Éliás Tamás <elias.tamas () uni-pen hu>]

Udv / Greetings!

I have a problem with non TLS enabled browsers. For my site it is
required to use TLS. But most users do not have it. Is it possible to
use a clientside javascript or anything to find out (before it is
being dropped on the https) if the user, - while accessing the
http version of the page, - has TLS enabed or not? And if not, I
display a message to enable it, if it would like to continue. I could
reduce my phone-calls by 90% by this way.

thank you in advance!
