Can anybody help with this one?

I am running http://www.mydomain.com on a non-secure server. However, I can use SSL if I type the URL https://www.mywebhoster.com/~mydomain/. This URL points to the files in my domain with a secure connection.

My login page is called login.php and it redirects to a page called index_on.php, and I would like to use the encryption of SSL for the actual login information by pointing at my login page like this:
https://www.mywebhoster.com/~mydomain/login.php
and after logging in, redirecting the page to
http://www.mydomain.com/index_on.php.
But this does not work. The login session variable does not seem to exist when I came back to http://www.mydomain.com/index_on.php.
Has anybody a solution for this?
Thanks

It is beacuse of sessions ...
when you use http:// and https:// or different domain name this can't preserve sessions set before on https:// and retrive them on http:// ....
(www.mywebhoster.com/~mydomain vs www.mydomain.com).

Can I also draw the conclusion that there is no way to work around this?

I'm affraid there is no easy way ...

You have to let your visitors stay all the time under https:// and this works well ...
