SSL Problem - Modify tpl_footer with exceptions?

[mlm2005]

Hi All,

I've added some external images/links on the bottom of my website pages. I've also configured the SSL feature. Now my secure pages say there are some items are not secure. I realize this is because of the url for the external images. Is there a way to modify the tpl_footer.php with exceptions? In other words - have the images/links appear on all pages except the secure pages?

Thanks!

That is because you have hard coded the images. Until this is cleared up, you will get the unsecure images popup.

Hello and thank you!

I did realize this was because the images were hard coded and that that was why the SSL was showing the error. Because they are images to "top sites" lists I cannot host them on my website. What I was wondering is how I can have these images on all pages EXCEPT the SSL pages.

Thanks!

You could try placing the following code around your image(s)

<?php
if ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT']=='80') {
?>

Your image(s) URL(s)

<?php
}
?>

Or you could create a new banner in admin -> tools -> banner manager and turn them off where it says Banner on SSL

Steve:

You should fix the link in your signature right now it takes you to the W3C home page. I think its because you have a double http://http// included.

... Because they are images to "top sites" lists I cannot host them on my website...

I'm having a similar dilemma; I also need to place topsites banners in tpl_footer.php. The problem I'm having is that the images don't show up at all. I'm not receiving SSL errors, but maybe it's because they're not loading yet?

The exact same image code works on non-SSL pages outside of Zen.

I have tried both recommendations above, but with no luck. I wrapped the port exception code around the image code, nothing. Then I placed the image code inside the HTML banner textarea & turned off show on SSL pages, still no dice.

I've verified that the Zen banner is working at least, because the topsites image is nested inside a styled table; which is showing up on non-SSL pages.

Could this possibly be due to the images being called like this:

<img src="http://www.topsite.com/button.php?id=1234" />

?
