Ssl Problem - get "warning: contains unauthenticated content"

How's it going guys/gals?

So here's my problem.. everything seems to be working fine on my site except
when a customer does continue to check an item out on the site, it goes to the ssl site, however, the padlock has a red slash going diagonal, and when you hover over it, it states;

"warning: contains unauthenticated content"

How do i fix this?

It's suppose to say site is secured or authenticated by godaddy.com

Re: Ssl Problem - get "warning: contains unauthenticated content"

Merlinpa.. thanks for the quick reply..

How do you think I would be able to fix this (seeing how that was a custom banner made for my site)

Also, my menu.swf was made for me as well.. is that a problem, seeing how they are both .swf files located in the same folder

LMK!

Re: Ssl Problem - get "warning: contains unauthenticated content"

You are attempting to load the swf file from an "absolute" URL address, ie: one which contains the entire URL.
But, since the URL is a non-SSL address (http://blahblah), any attempt to load it into the browser on an SSL page will give you security errors.

So, instead of giving the full URL, just give the path.
ie: change both instances of this:
"http://www.strictlyautoparts.com/includes/templates/classic/images/banner.swf"
to this:
"/includes/templates/classic/images/banner.swf"

Re: Ssl Problem - get "warning: contains unauthenticated content"

drbryte to the rescue.. thanks bud!

Can I just hire you for one day to totally fix my zen cart site up properly? :P (I'm dead serious btw)

I really like this program however, I do believe that my old webmaster did such a horrible job that the foundation built around my site is weak and is not living up to its potential.

As of the moment, I am running my site, Canada's leading SUV/Truck Parts store however I feel that since its not functioning properly I'm losing tons of sales..

Re: Ssl Problem - get "warning: contains unauthenticated content"

Okay.. the changes have been made...

HOWEVER, when you click "Login" or "My Account" and you're on the SSL side of my site, it still shows;

"Warning: site contains unauthenticated...."

What is the problem now?

Can somebody help me out asap please and thank you!!!

Re: Ssl Problem - get "warning: contains unauthenticated content"

Yes, you made the changes, but you left the old code in the file.
Remove the old code entirely, and the errors should go away.

	<!--<param name="movie" value="http://www.strictlyautoparts.com/includes/templates/classic/images/banner.swf" />-->
	<param name="quality" value="high" />
	<param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" />	
	<!--<embed src="http://www.strictlyautoparts.com/includes/templates/classic/images/banner.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="799" height="185" name="bottom" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />-->

Re: Ssl Problem - get "warning: contains unauthenticated content"

Using valid Code for the Flash would also help.

<div align="center"> <object id="movie" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/includes/templates/classic/images/banner.swf" width="799" height="185"> <param name="movie" value="/includes/templates/classic/images/banner.swf" /> </object> </div>

Note: to provide "something" for those with Flash turned off, you should provide a text msg. or an image.

i.e.
<img src="/images/noflash.gif" width="365" height="48" alt="Flash Player Required to View" />
