Hi                                                                              
                                                                                
First  thanks for your answer.

I was indeed afraid of that.

Well                                                                            
what i want to secure is the sending of the login/ password.                    
But i don t want at all to send the html pages in sll.                          
Therefore i want to switch on ssl for sending the login and password and        
switch back to http after when i set the cookie.                                
Is that possible?
