Page errors on Secure pages

SSL Common Page errors

Most make this mistake with images when setting up Shopping Carts or other applications which require a Secure connection.
The error takes place when the page opens and you get a message that the site contains items which are not secure.

To correct the problem be sure to use relative path such as /images/my-image.jpg
If you are uploading images for items in a cart or making changes to the template be sure the cart or your changes sets the image location using a path to the image and not a URL.
If you use the full URL starting with http:// then this will casue an error on a secure page which requires all items to be called from https://
Using the path avoids this problem!

If you are using Flash the method Dreamweaver uses to embed the Flash object works well as it too avoids making calls to non-secure pages.
