I have a page that has nothing on it that needs to be secured by SSL,  
except when someone wants to hit an ajax request to login.

I don’t want to secure every page, just so that when I render a  
partial that needs to be https, it’ll be protected.

I’m using the ssl\_requirement plugin.

Any ideas on what to do? Is this even possible? Or will I have to  
encrypt every single page? I’d rather not do popup windows,  
everything’s nice and slickly inserted with cool DOM manipulation.

Thanks!
