Allowing access to a web service only via SSL

I have a web service that I only want users to access via SSL. I am looking
for a way to test whether the client is using https and not http.

I was told that I could this with : if
request.servervariables("server_port") = 443 then. But the code is in a .asmx
page and it doesn't recognise the request object.

Any help would be appreciated,
Craig
