Handle of non-ssl to ssl page. about magento-htaccess HOT 6 CLOSED

The problem is in your brackets it should be:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

You have a [ instead of a { before the REQUEST_URI}

Personally I use the following syntax for this

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R,L]

If you want to use multiple domains and ensure that a 301 redirect is presented then use

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.(.)
RewriteRule ^.$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]

I know it should be placed between the Mod_rewrite.c block but does putting it in the beginning or end matter?

It should be the first entry in your mod_rewrite block, as all other rewrites should be done after you have converted to https
