Why does isSecure()return true and getScheme() always return https even when the request url is http?

[smiley <in...@gmail.com>]

I am trying to check for if the request url is secure(https)/http and then
based on that building a response url and passing it to the AJAX function to
populate the sub-dropdowns based on the selected value in the main dropdown.
Why do getScheme() always return https and isSecure() always returns true
even if i am trying to access a site with http://mylink.com ?

 var scheme="<%=request.getScheme()%>";
 var baseurl="<%=request.isSecure()%>"; 
//if the protocol is 'https'
   	if (baseurl=='true'){
  		var url =
"https://<%=request.getServerName()%><%=request.getContextPath()%>/JsonLookup?z="
+ zone;    
  	}
	//if the protocol is 'http' 
  	else 
  	{	
  		alert("inside protocol else");
 		var url =
"http://<%=request.getServerName()%><%=request.getContextPath()%>/JsonLookup?z="
+ zone;  
 		alert("inside http:"+url); 
 	}
