Bug Description

Captive Portals not work on HTTPS pages (because break SSL certificate), so almost all captive portals redirect only traffic over 80 port to the captive portal site.

On this code http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~spinatelli/elementaryos/captive-login/view/head:/src/CaptiveLogin.vala:
    private const string DUMMY_URL = "www.elementaryos.org";

DUMMY_URL response with a 302 to a https page so the captive portal site never show and you can not login.

Solution, make some like:
    private const string DUMMY_URL = "http://captive.elementaryos.org";

And configure that domain to NOT redirect to https page.
