ASP.NET & SSL

C

Curia Damiano

I have an app in C#/ASP.NET 1.1 on a Win2003 server.
Now I'm trying to make it use SSL, so I requested and
installed a server certificate to IIS.
But now I have some questions:
1) if I force my web-site to use SSL, and I request a page
via SSL, in IE a warning appears telling that the page
contains protected object and non protected object, but
how is it possible, if I force https? How can I make this
warning disappear?
2) I would like to force https to all my objects; for
example I'd like images, css, javascript and plain htm to
be trasmitted not crypted. So I thought of using an
HttpHandler that redirect http calls of aspx/asmx to https
and https calls to other object to http. Is it possible?
Or there is a better solution to this optimization?
Thanks, Damiano Curia

Hi,

To avoid the warning you need to either:
a) change the browser settings (not possible if you do not control the
browser)
-or-
b) all resources in a webpage (eg images, CSS, external javascript files,
flash files) need to be referenced using HTTPS not HTTP. So if you have:

<img src="http://www.myserver.com/image.jpg">

you will get an error you see. You need to use:

<img src="/image.jpg">

Cheers
Ken
