plus766 Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 Ok, I've read about this, and changed my images to just /images/blahblahblah.gif, and they still do not display. These are images associated with java links for an affiliate program. Is there any way to get around this? by the way I'm using a shared ssl cert. Thanks Pam Striving to go beyond Novice-suggestions always welcomed
♥Vger Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 It should be images/some_image.gif and not /images/some_image.gif Vger

Thanks Pam It's not the images but the link that causes the problem. If the link is to an external site, it has to use https or you have to remove it while on a secure page.

♥Vger Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 If you have a link to another website and it uses an image downloaded from their site, and it's an http link, then the way around it is to do this: Download a copy of the image from their site, upload it to your site, and then change the link to that other website to read something like this: <a href="http://somesite.com><img src="images/someimage.gif" width = "xxx" height="xx" alt="xxx"></a> The image is now loaded from your website using relative pathways and gets rid of the error. It doesn't matter that the link to the other website is an http link. If you use flash on your website then it will contain two http links to downloads from MacroMedia, and you need to change these to https links. If you are displaying Google Ads on your website then there needs to be a switch installed which turns them off if the page is https, because I don't think there's an https link for page ads from Google.

Vger Thank you, I did that and have two problems. First the image doesn't show up at all. I'm assuming it's something with my config file, I've had it to 'images/' and to https//mysite.com/images and neither works to get the display image. In the link text it has onmouseover="window.status=the the http link, Could that be causing the problem? Thank you Striving to go beyond Novice-suggestions always welcomed
