Which works great until you run into something like Washington Mutual
(of which you have no doubt heard)...
http://www.wamu.com redirects to
http://www.wamu.com/personal/default.asp
and
https://www.wamu.com *also* redirects to
http://www.wamu.com/personal.default.asp (!)
And yes, then you're supposed to trust that the page you've been served
up will send the form submit with your username and password to the
right place over https.
They do now have a link to
https://online.wamu.com/IdentityManagement/Logon.aspx on that main page,
but you have to look for it. But really, https://www.wamu.com should
redirect to *that* in order for it to be safe for the
slightly-knowledgeable-about-http-security.
