If you sending any data to the browser that comes anywhere other than a
folder that is digitally encrypted.

So, if you have a page https://foo.com/whater.htm

And in whatever.htm you have
<img src="http://whatchagigger.com/nuuugle.gif">

You will get that message because nuggle.giff is not in a sub directory
of https://foo.com

It is a pain in the butt.  But you know that part.

Subject: [thelist] secure/insecure elements

Question:

In what cases for what browsers will the user be given a warning like
"this page contains both secure and insecure elements"?

Kinda related:

When requiring basic authentication for a directory (IIS 5), IE 5 Mac
sometimes asks for the login multiple times as the page loads and it
really irritates me ... I haven't noticed this with any other browser
... why does this happen?
