SSL Certificate Error – This page contains both secure

and non secure items.

Page contains secure and non-secure Items

Generally you would see this type of error message when some of the elements of a secure webpage (the page that is open on your browser with https://) are not loaded by secure sources. This error mostly occurs with Frames, Java-Scripts & Images.

There are three possible ways to solve this error 1. Change all URLs to https. 2. Change all links to // or make them relative 3. Change the browser setting.

Solution 1: Change all URLs to https

Open that webpage source and search for http:// and replace it with https:// for all images, Frames, Java-Scripts. For example

<img src="http://www.domain.com/image.gif" alt="" /> Will be replaced with,<img src="https://www.domain.com/image.gif" alt="" />

It won’t work if a website does not have any SSL certificate setup and if you open image/file with https.

If you don’t want to change all links with https:// then another way is to replace them with just ‘//’.<img src="http://www.domain.com/image.gif" alt="" /> will be replaced with,<img src="//www.domain.com/image.gif" alt="" />

Or you just need to access them relatively.<img src="http://www.domain.com/image.gif" alt="" /> will be replaced with,<img src="image.gif" alt="" />

This method will tell your browser that it must have to load image/script/frame securely without any error if the webpage is being accessed securely, but if the webpage is not being accessed secure then browser will load Image/script/frame normally.

Solution 2: Change all links to // or make them relative

Solution 3: Change the browser settings

If you are the website administrator then you can change the code to get rid of this error but if you are not the website administrator then the only way to remove this error is change the browser settings.
