Clear SSL state

I want to be able to use a browser to negotiate SSL client verification after someone has a certificate in the browser. They start off with no certificate. HTML meta-refreshes until they do. Then prompted to select the certificate. Client authentication isn't bad, but trying to get client authentication working after a browser has not certificates isn't working. in IE i can get it to work with the meta-refreshes if i reset the SSL State, hoping there's a server initiated way do do this i can do from an irule.
