This is the code given to me by my hosting service provider to insert in the .htaacces file
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
X5 does not generate an .htaaccess file to edit by adding the above code so when someone goes to the webstie they automatically directed to the secure site https.

Most servers today offer automatic forwarding to https without .htaccess. For example with plesk. If this is not possible with your hosting, you can create the file with an editor and load it onto the server.
