Doesn't that have the effect of sending your userid and password in plain text?

I noticed my little bank, JP Morgan-Chase, is using an unsecure page for login now.

If you login in plain text, what's the sense to having all the following information encrypted?
There is a secure login page on the Chase site. You have hunt around for it though.

CapitalOne does it the right way. They have you click on login on the unsecure main page but that click takes you to a SECURE page where you actually enter your information. Chase has just totally redone their site and method of credit card payment. It is ironic that they have secure message center and other stuff and bill paying is much easier than it was with Chase Presientment but all this secure stuff now except for login unless you look in rather obscure places for the secure login page.
