title: How to redirect from HTTPS to HTTP without annoying error messages
body: <p>I want to redirect users, after HTTPS login, to the HTTP pages on the site.  Using HTTPS for the whole site is not going to happen.</p>
  
  <p>What I have so far is the following: </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>User posts the login form to the secure site
  
  <ul>
  <li>The secure server validates the credentials</li>
  <li>The secure server sends a 302 redirect to the client</li>
  </ul></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>This works, except on my machine in IE6 the user gets an error message because the default is to warn when exiting a secure page.  These errors are a usability killer for me and thus a showstopper.  I changed it so that step 3 is</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Server sends html code with a meta refresh</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>But this is very slow; even on my local machine it's noticeably slower than doing the 302 redirect.  </p>
  
  <p>Is there a better way to accomplish the goal of a hassle-free redirection on standard settings that people use? IE6 represents 20%-25% of our traffic.  Also, does anyone have any good info about which browsers will warn and which won't warn for the 302 redirect? I am considering black-listing IE6 so that only it gets the slow meta refresh and everyone else gets the fast 302.</p>
