https problem with Firefox

I just installed the latest ckeditor on an SSL site, but requesting ckeditor.js triggers a Firefox security warning:
"You have requested an encrypted page that contains some unencrypted information. Information that you see or enter on this page could easily be read by a third party."

I can't really figure out why, I don't see any requests going out unencrypted, but it's very annoying obviously.

Even a very simple page with just

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<script language="JavaScript" src="/ckeditor/ckeditor.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

Re: https problem with Firefox

I'm having the same problem.
Using FireFox 3.5.5

Any ideas?

Re: https problem with Firefox

Hi,

If I'm not mistaken this has been fixed for CKEditor 3.1. The solution is to change file 'core/_bootstrap.js' at the beginning, from:

var testImage = ( CKEDITOR.env.ie && CKEDITOR.env.version < 7 ) ? ( CKEDITOR.basePath + 'images/spacer.gif' ) : 'about:blank';

to:

var testImage = ( CKEDITOR.env.ie && CKEDITOR.env.version < 7 || CKEDITOR.env.gecko && CKEDITOR.env.version >= 10900 ) ? ( CKEDITOR.basePath + 'images/spacer.gif' ) : 'about:blank';

If you are using the minified ckeditor.js, search for 'about:blank' (it's only once in the file) and edit from:

var l=c&&b.version<7?a.basePath+'images/spacer.gif':'about:blank'

to:

var l=(c&&b.version<7||CKEDITOR.env.gecko&&CKEDITOR.env.version>=10900)?a.basePath+'images/spacer.gif':'about:blank'

Cheers.
