Chrome and Firefox Security warnings

It seems whenever my store goes to a https page it gives a security warning (actually also in IE but its a less threatening dialog box) that it has encountered items on the page not being delivered over a secure connection.

I have a customer who won't check out because he is seeign this and he wrote me this morning - I have had two customers now mention this to us in our first week.

This has to be the image links on the side columns, etc. not being linked with an https designation?

Does Zen Cart have a preference setting to feed all images that appear in all pages over https? I guess what I am saying is when they build the page is there a way to tell Zen cart to deliver over https?

Or is it that Zen Cart does so intelligently within the page and possibly the problems comes from my own sidebox graphics, etc?

TIA

Re: Chrome and Firefox Security warnings

The problem may well be your graphics, but we'll need to see the site to know for sure.

The exact error message you're seeing in Firefox would help, too.

Re: Chrome and Firefox Security warnings

Yep you have hardcoded http:// image links for your twitter icon your youtube icon and you facebook icon as well as your site header logo

<img src="http://www gotvapes com/images/gvtv.png" height="118" width="140" ></a>

I am guessing you have hardcoded the header logo into the file?

try changing it to this

<img src="/images/gvtv.png" height="118" width="140" ></a>

and see if it works

as for the twitter icons etc, do the same thing

from

<img src="http://www gotvapes com/images/facebook_icon.png" height="49" width="49" >

to

<img src="/images/facebook_icon.png" height="49" width="49" >

Re: Chrome and Firefox Security warnings

Thanks guys...I am changing the links and so far still get this. I am thinking the logo in the header might be the culprit because when I do a view source it shows as hard coded with a http but all I did was upload over the templates logo.gif file in the proper folder.

Re: Chrome and Firefox Security warnings

The images IE has an issue with are the SSL certificate image and the Linkpoint image, both in the footer, and everything in the Twitter sidebox.

your js is calling an external file, either find a secure link or host it yourself

<script src="http://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js"></script>

The easiest way to find most (not all) these errors is to view the source of the ssl page

and do a search for src="http:
