Title Body

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. What I have so far is the following: User posts the login form to the secure site The secure server validates the credentials The secure server sends a 302 redirect to the client 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 Server sends html code with a meta refresh But this is very slow; even on my local machine it's noticeably slower than doing the 302 redirect. 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.
