Description
I have installed and enabled this module, and gone to the configuration page and updated the settings. I made my changes to the base url in settings.php. However, it's not clear to me that this module is working. I'm not sure what the end result is supposed to be - should the login page be served over ssl? Or is the submitted information being transported over ssl? As an end user I see no result after installing this module - should I see anything? How do I know if it's working? Thanks.

#1
If you look at the HTML source of the front page when you're logged out, the user-login-form should have action pointing to an https URL. This means that the form data will be submitted over SSL.
#2
I don't use the front page for my login - my logins occur at http://example.com/user. When I view source on that page, there is no field for user-login-form and no action pointing to a https URL. Is this module dependent on the login form being part of the front page? If I alter my base URL to http://example.com/user, would that work?
#3
Can you explain how this module works regarding the /user page? That form has the form-id="user-login" not "user-login-form".
I don't understand why there would be a distinction, but apparently one is being made.
