Secure & Non-Secure Items with IE

[youderian]

While testing my site in IE6 & IE7, the common alert box "This page contains both secure and non-secure items. Do you want to display non-secure items?" comes up. If you choose no, everything but the images are displayed leading me to believe that the images are in some way excluded from the SSL connection.

The problem is, if people click on display all (secure and non-secure) than the secured lock icon in the browser disappears!

Does anyone know why my images are causing this and what I can do to make the entire page "secure" and keep the confidence-inspiring lock icon?

Thanks,

Andrew

I understand fully what causes this error, but I am very stumped as to what element is doing this to a site I recently relaunched - http://www.healthbeyondhype.com

Any ideas what is being pulled into the page insecurely? This appears on every single page viewed in https mode.

What if you temporarily remove your google analytics code from your footer as a test?

I thought of that and had tried it. Even when I remove it, the insecure/secure error still shows in IE.

Hello,

I have the same problem. The pop up window with secure and non-secure items appears and when I click on 'no', the lock icon displays and clicking on 'yes' makes it disappear. I contacted the GEOTRUST tech support and they told me some of the webpages have non-secure image links which is causing this. I changed the "http" to "https" in the define_mainpage file in the define pages editor in the tools menu. As soon as I did this the whole text disappeared. and when I checked the home page the flash image was gone and the define_main page had no content in it. I checked the define_main page on my server : /includes/languages/english/html_includes/define_mainpage.php and there was no content there either. So I copied the content from my backup file and pasted it in both the files - one in the define pages editor in the admin panel under tools/define pages editor and the other one on my server after changing the permisssions to 755, but each time I copy it doesn't save in both the files. I don't know why this is happening. I also requested my hosting company to instal the ssl certificate properly and they told me they have fixed the problem by editing the .htaccess file, but nothing happened and it is still the same. Following is the content of the define_mainpage file :
<div align="center">
<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="315" height="579">
<param name="movie" value="includes/templates/Slovak_Classic/images/WithBg.swf">"
<param name="movie" value="includes/templates/Slovak_Classic/images/WithBg.swf">"
<embed src="includes/templates/Slovak_Classic/images/WithBg.swf" quality= "high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="315" height="579"></embed>
<param name="quality" value="high"><param name="BGCOLOR" value="#000000">
<param name="menu" value="false">
</object>

"WithBg.swf" is my flash file on the index page.
I would really appreciate your help very much.

thanks

Could somebody please help me. Now I am not able to upload or modify any products in my categories in the admin. The pop up window shows in the admin too. I feel at a loss. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The URL of the site you're having the error on would be a help.

Hello Dr. Byte,

Thanks for your response. The URL is http://www.indicana.com. Now the pop up box (want to display secure and non secure items)appears in the admin panel too. And when I upload or modify any products they don't get saved and it says "product disabled". It will be great if you could help me out.

thanks
