I'm not as expert in cryptology, but many of the use cases you write
below somehow don't seem right to me.

> 1.  A page has information that needs to be secure, i.e. demographic

Is the page secured, or is it not?

If you access secured information through a non-secured page, then the
info is no longer secured.



> 2.  Submitting a form has to be secure, i.e. login information, demographics
> information

Same thing.

If you're submitting information via http, then it's no loner secured.
You need to submit via https, with all the ssl/tls caveats in place, for
it to be secured.


> 3.  When on a secure page,  link to a non-secure page (from demographics
> page to company info)

Sure, that's not a problem. Just use an ExternalLink.

What Eelco writes seems to make sense to me. I think you need to
consider the http and https versions conceptually as two separate apps,
or else you'll run into a lot of trouble.


Cheers,
