Don't do it.

It has been pointed out several times that it is 
not recommanded to switch from https to http and
stay in the same session. That would open a 
!!!BIG!!! security hole.

If you really know what you are doing, you can write
a filter that redirects every request that came in  
over HTTPS (except the ones for your login pages) 
to HTTP.
