Can't think of a better way to describe this issue.

I'm using the securepages module to force my site to be server over SSL on the cart pages.

I also have some ad blocks on there pages, but the images served by the ad module aren't being served over SSL.

Not a security issue, but does flag a warning on some browsers.

Regards
Alan

Title: Ad module doesn't respect Securpages module settings » Ad module doesn't respect Securepages module settings

When the ad module serves advertisements, it generally does not bootstrap Drupal (for performance reasons) -- because of this, it can not respect securepages module settings.

Marking as a feature request, as it would be great to come up with a generic solution for this. And then marking as postponed, as it's not something I plan to work on. Patches welcome.

Thanks Jeremy.
I don't have any idea to solve this, but my workaround for now, for anybody following, is to hide the Ad module blocks on the pages served 'via' securepages module.

You could just use // in the module instead of the protocol.

Drupal 6 is EOL and no longer supported. Closing this as outdated for that reason. Thanks for your contribution!
