fancybox iframe with https ?

Is your site on ssl or the iframe content?

Hi RavanH,
My site is not on ssl.
The iframe content starts with no ssl, and it is working fine until it needs ssl: then the iframe content is blank.
Any suggestion?
Thanks!

Hi p1erstef,

It sounds like your browser is blocking secure content embedded in a non secure web page. This is done because this kind of thing is sometimes used in so-called man-in-the-middle attacks to steal private data. You are not using it that way (I suppose) but the browser simply blocks this kind of activity to prevent exposing the user to security risks.

You might be able to set your browsers security level more relaxed but that will not solve the issue for other visitors.

Embed a simple iframe (not a link that opens in FancyBox) in your page content with the same URL. Then browse inside that iframe to the ssl page and you should get the same result… If not, then please share a link to your site ??

Thank you for your answer, RavanH,
I confirm that I get the same result with a simple iframe…
Could you please advise me on what I can do? What if I get an ssl certificate for my site? Will it be ok to start the embed navigation with no ssl and then to navigate with ssl!?
Thanks again!

I don’t really know… It might work better with only a browser warning like “This page contains both secure and insecure items. Are you sure you want to continue?” but if you are not worried that this message will scare away visitors, then at least you can make it work.

My site open with ssl.
Fancybox content blank, when i click on youtube link, because Youtube videos use http embed by default.
How use https embed links, because it works?

Hi finderX, make sure you link to the https version of each Youtube page.
