way around it? I think that warning is built into the browsers that recognise you are moving from to a non-secure version of the same domain. If you give your users some kind of hint that this may happen it should alleviate their fears.
Ash: That's what I suspected and told the client -- however, the client seems to think there should be a way to turn that off. I told the client that it was a browser thing to help protect users and stop evil-programmers from taking the user from a secured site to an unsecured site without telling the user. But, I just wanted to have my understanding confirmed. Thanks, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
