A little function I add to the base Page_Controller class that allows you to define what actions are explicitly SSL.  It will put users in SSL when they access it and take them out of it when they navigate somewhere else.  It is available in any controllers that extend Page_Controller.

Be sure to add `$this->_checkSSL();` to the Page_Controller's `init()` function.
