How to gracefully go from https: to http: pages

I want to make my form pages display as https: with SSL. I can make that happen with no issues.

To avoid the IE "Only secure content is displayed" every link on the page needs to be https: instead of http:

However, my form thank you pages and the rest of the site display as http:

So my question is once you are in https: how do you gracefully leave it?

I found something about doing IIS rewrites to redirect all the pages I don't want in https back to http but I have a lot of pages. There has to be a better way.

If I am reading it correctly you are trying to do a form post from https to http?
Submit your form to a https page that does any processing (db, email etc) and then do a redirect to the http version of a page that says Thank you.

You were right. I didn't need to do the outbound links. That saved me a huge headache. It turned out I had two javascripts that needed fixed. The IE developer tools told me which ones to fix and my pages are working now.

Thanks!
