Thanks Donie, I changed the port for SSL to 443 instead of 8443, now it automatically switch between HTTP and HTTPS; user does not have to specify the port number in the URL.
Thank you very much for the help.

If you wanted to only use SSL you could use 80 but it's impractical as you only need to use it when the data you're sending is sensitive plus it's be very slow as SLL uses a fair bit of CPU. All firewalls should allow 443 traffic to go through if that's what you're worried about. I don't think it's possible to use encrypted and unencrypted traffic on the same port in Tomcat (or and other server) but I could be wrong...

Is it necessary that it should be in two different ports?
