I have the following problem,
I have a HTML page that contains two frames, top.html and bottom.html. The
top frame contains one hyperlink and the bottom frame contains a form
which contains a single textbox (see the source code below for more
details).
I am currently running Apache 1.3.19 as the webserver, with mod_ssl and
open_ssl , and Tomcat 3.2 as the app server. The browser I am using is
Internet Explorer 5.5 with Service Pack 1.
The problem is (EXACTLY) as follows:
1. SLOWLY (and this is important) enter some characters into the textbox.
The point being that characters must be entered into the textbox with
maybe a second or two between each keystroke.
2. Put the mouse over the hyperlink in the top frame and wait a couple of
seconds before clicking the link.
3. Once you click the link you get a Mixed Content Warning (in IE5.5 w SP1
only).
Why???
It doesn't seem to occur if you enter the characters quickly...I know this
bug sounds...well...weird...but if anyone out there can reproduce this and
know why it is happening, could you please let me know.
Thanks,
Jeehad
