Content not loading because of https/http conflict

So i've been trying out some sites over HTTPS instead of HTTP. Most of it just works fine, but in some cases, and WindowsCentral is no exception, some content isn't loading correctly. By the way, i'm testing this in Chrome (mostly because i can set "allow" in my adblocker and i like the devtools better).

For example, when loading this URL:
https://www.windowscentral.com/lumia-950-and-usb-otg

You get 3 related errors:

  • lumia-950-and-usb-otg:1 Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.windowscentral.com/lumia-950-and-usb-otg' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script 'http://ads.servebom.com/tmnhead.js'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
  • lumia-950-and-usb-otg:544 Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.windowscentral.com/lumia-950-and-usb-otg' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure resource 'http://www.youtube.com/embed/wkgh-GMoraY?rel=0&autoplay=0&wmode=opaque&controls=2&autohide=1&showinfo=0'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

  • lumia-950-and-usb-otg:717 Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.windowscentral.com/lumia-950-and-usb-otg' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script 'http://trends.revcontent.com/serve.js.php?w=14013&t=rc_457&c=1448103117862&width=1920'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

So the ads-scripts and youtube inclusion aren't shown. If however you use https for those links as wel, they will work properly. Its a security issue and shouldn't be all to hard to fix.

By the way, i also see:

  • SVG's SMIL animations (<animate>, <set>, etc.) are deprecated and will be removed. Please use CSS animations or Web animations instead.
  • lumia-950-and-usb-otg:47 'Performance.webkitClearResourceTimings' is deprecated. Please use 'Performance.clearResourceTimings' instead.
  • ping:1 De opgegeven URL wordt niet toegestaan door de configuratie van de toepassing.: Een of meer van de opgegeven URL's worden niet toegestaan door de instellingen van de app. De URL moet overeenkomen met de website- of canvas-URL, of het domein moet een subdomein zijn van een van de domeinen van de app.

Last one reads in English:
ping:1 The given URL is not allowed by the configuration of the application.: One or more of the included URS's are not allowed by the settings of the app. The URL has to match the website- or canvas-URL, or the domain has to be a subdomain of one of the domains of the app.

Not sure what that is all about, but let your devs check it out. And please fix youtube HTTPS as it isn't showing anywhere when you browse the site in HTTPS mode. But thanks for adding it ;)
