Looks like a CSS link,

  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://ycombinator.com/news.css">
is using http rather than https from an https page.

Chrome (25.0.1364.152 m) refuses[1] to retrieve; FF 19.0.2 does retrieve; IE 8 warns of insecure content.

[1] Chrome can be told to load anyway at the end of its URL entry box.




Good to know i'm not the only person fucking things up like this.


Protip: Specify urls as "//example.com/path/to/style.css" or such. They will default to whatever protocol (http/https) was used to fetch the parent page. It's also less typing (DRY!).


Unless you're loading from a file (using file://)


I'm curious about when you would ever do this on a public-facing webpage.
