RE: [WSG] A bit OT: Narrrgh - pulling out hair

The secure insecure message means that you have an https page that is referencing some material (an image, style sheet or whatever) over normal http. To test that this is the problem visit the page over http instead of https - no message. I had a quick look over the page and couldn't see

Thanks Mark - yep it was indeed the flash object tag! Changed to https for the codebase and pluginspage and now is all good. Interesting IE feature? Thanks again! James Mark Stanton wrote: The secure insecure message means that you have an https page that is referencing some material (an

RE: [WSG] A bit OT: Narrrgh - pulling out hair

Think about it - if I made a page that was https then had an iframe that was http from another server The user thinks they are getting https but in fact they are not. IE does go over the top though - anything linked will do it (images, etc..). Cheers Mark -- Mark

Is it me or does that article simply point out how to generate non-standards-compliant code with javascript in order to fool the validator? Though it's not always possible, I prefer adhere to the spirit of the standard - allowing the user to control where pages open. B Neerav wrote:

Lucian My advice would be that if your images are purely decorative, then no 'accessible alternative' content is required. There might be an argument for saying that Picture of Ruby Kavanagh, Principal... is content rather than decoration, but it is a judgement call, not a fixed rule. We have

Different browsers react differently - Opera doesn't show the padlock icon in this case (the page isn't secure as Mark pointed out), Moz will show a broken padlock icon and IE will go on read alert. This occurs with anything bought in over http when the main page is requested over https (e.g
