Redirecting from a secure page to a non-secure page without warning

[Gaunt]

I'm in the process of building a site using PHP. I have created a login page that I intend to have only accept connections over secure https. The rest of the site, however, I would like accessed through regular http.

Everything is working, except when I automatically redirect the user from the login page (after successful login) to the home page, it warns the user that they are being redirected to an unsecure location.

Is there a way I can get around having the browse warn the user of this?

This warning is meant to help users. If there was a way around it (other than using pure SSL, which is a great thing for privacy) the warning would be useless. Let the warning stay, its not a big deal.

Fair enough, but it should be possible to move in and out of a secure area of a site without warning. For instance, when I do my banking online, it's secure, but when I logout, and it sends me back to the home page for my bank, it's not secure anymore, and I don't get a warning.

I was mostly hoping there was a proper way to go about doing this, not really a method for getting around the warning.

Maybe there is... Hopefully someone else will give you a better response than myself. 😛

You probably clicked "don't warn me about this any more"

I don't believe it's an option not to be warned about it anymore... or atleast it's not in my testing.
