Secure and Nonsecure items

To answer my own question, in my case the problem was definitely that I had hard coded URLs to the two images I mentioned. This is also mentioned in the tutorials here:
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=150

Still don't quite understand why FF and IE treated this so differently though...

I seem to be having a problem with secure and non-secure items with IE7 and IE8 (Firefox doesn't seem to think there is mixed content), and for the life of me I can't figure out why. It only seems to happen on my product description pages. This is not a huge deal as these are usually not encrypted, but if someone logs on when they are on a product page, IE gives them a mixed content warning. I've checked it with a couple of http sniffers, and all content appears to be secure, so I'm stumped. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is? Could this have something to do with lightbox for my product pictures?

Here's an example link. Make sure to open it in IE:

https://birdingdepot.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_35&products_id=344

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Hey guys, sorry if this is posted into the wrong thread. So far as I could tell, this was the best match.

I also am getting the whole "contains secure and nonsecure items" error message when I go to the checkout page. I've tried everything I can think of, I've followed as many tutorials/answers as I could find, tried different configurations, and still am getting the problem. I've even checked the source code (after the fact) to make sure I don't have any hard-coded http: in there.

Here's the includes/configure.php

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.comicsxp.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.comicsxp.com');

define('ENABLE_SSL', 'true');

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/cxpstore/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/cxpstore/');

and here's the admin/includes/configure.php

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.comicsxp.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.comicsxp.com');
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.comicsxp.com');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://www.comicsxp.com');

define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'true');
define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'true');

Any help would be much appreciated. And in case it was unclear, the store url is https://www.comicsxp.com

Thanks guys.

I'm far from an expert but I've just been troubleshooting this on my site. Start by removing stuff and see if anything fixes it. Maybe start with the social networking site links at the bottom. I don't think you can have off site links to another site unless it is https

I am having the same problem in IE. I got help with social bookmarkers. Now, it looks like it is Live Help and Join our Mailing List - both sideboxes.:frusty:

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Kim

Kim
I am sort of dealing with the same secure/nonsecure issues. If I find the solution I'll be sure to let you know. By the way, I love your site! It's beautiful. God bless ya real good sister.

Thank you.

I just went thru this with social bookmarks. Thanks to help of someone else on forum. I ended up adding this to includes/templates/temp/common.tpl_header.php.

<!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->

<?php if ($request_type == 'NONSSL') { ?> 

social book mark detail

<?php } ?> <!-- AddThis Button END -->

I am thinking that the newsletter sidebox does not have to be on when customer is logged in. They indicate if they want to be on newsletter email when they first login. I can live with getting rid of it...But do not know what file to place this in???

But, I would like Live Help to be available....if it means getting secure/nonsecure than I can get rid of it too when customer is logged in.

Thanks, Kim

Like this.....

Where located? I am looking for sideboxes with Newsletter and Live Help. I can turn off newsletter when customer is logged in, but would like Live Help to remain when customer is logged in.

Kim

The code for your live help would be wherever it was added.... templates/your_template/sideboxes ? Maybe... Maybe in a defined sidebox?

I am not good at this and very confused. I feel very stupid at this point. Please be patient with me.

This code is to be placed somewhere in one of my templates folder/sideboxes.

<a href="http://link.com/" target="_blank"><img src="//www.link.com/image.gif" border="0" alt=""></a>

Looks like I need something for link and image? link = www.burnerbooks. image = ?

Kim

Have a link to your site?

This <a href="http://link.com/" target="_blank"><img src="//www.link.com/image.gif" border="0" alt=""></a> is a template to solve the issue once you find the code =-)

Works well in FF...problem is IE once you login.

Hi Melanie,

I went into includes/templates/temp/sideboxes/tpl_blanksidebox.php. I could not find drop down in define pages editor. I found code, changed it and now have strange pic/icon inside box. I am saying no when asked if want secure/nonsecure when I refresh.

Do you know how to turn off newsletter sidebox while logged in? Maybe that would help...at least get rid of message....

Still does not work....

kburner:

Still does not work....

Does anyone have more suggestions? I lose orders everyday and need to get this resolved. :frusty:

It is only shows secure/nonsecure message in IE.

When I click on "NO" do not show non-secure, I only see two items that are messed up or missing -- the newsletter and Live help sideboxes.

How do I turn the newsletter "OFF" with secure SSL pages?

And how do I turn Live Help "ON" with secure SSL pages?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks, Kim

You may also look to where you have the:
images/PositiveSSL_tl_trans.gif

That is being called as non secure when on your secure pages ...

Either place the call to it in an IF to call it from secure or non-secure or force it to always be secure ...

Ajeh,

How do I always force it to be secure? I want it to show on SSL and nonSSL pages.

I went to banner that it is in. And changed two http: to https: like this.....

<a href="https://www.PositiveSSL.com" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 10px; text-decoration: none;"><img src="https://www.burnerbooks.com/images/PositiveSSL_tl_trans.gif" alt="SSL Certificate Authority" title="SSL Certificate Authority" border="0" /><br />SSL Certificate Authority</a>

Does this look correct? Kim

How can you tell in IE that it also has secure/nonsecure problem?
