Have you installed https-everywhere?
What is that? Why should I? :-?
https-everywhere is a browser plugin from the Electronic Freedom Foundation (EFF) that converts and sends http requests as https instead; only if the server cannot accept the https request will it fall back to http.
Ah, ok. But it is not the point, I don't really care if it is http or https. It is only the FF complains, which means that there is something wrong in "our" page.
Yes. I'd guess that the server is not capable of accepting the https version of the request.
Your guess is wrong, as trying it for yourself would have shown.
Ah! I reread your last post which points out that it only works with URLs that are entered into the location widget. My mistake. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
