solving ssl lock icon with a line through it due to mixed content?

Hi,

I have two functions in my customui.mv which write
my top nav bar and left nav bars. This is static code.


However, I'm noticing that when I hit checkout I have
an ssl lock icon with a line through it. I think this
may be because the images and links referred to in my
nav bar functions do not use the ssl path so I end up
having mixed content.

Is there an easy way to determine if I'm on an ssl
page and differentiate my output?

tia,
jd

I don't know if I've ever seen a padlock with a line
through it, that sounds more like an indication of
a problem with the SSL functionality rather than something
on the page as something on the page being insecure
usually just causes the lock to turn off.

David,

thanks for your reply...I believe my problem is a
well known problem with mixed content. Here's one of
many links discussing the problem:
