https compatability

[UOW Library]

Is there a way to make GotS work with https websites, seems to go blank. I am not super techy but could forward any instructions to the IT people. I know I can use pop up mode but would rather not. Is that the only way around it>?

We’ve been having these issues with various web sites, and the only solution we’ve found is to install GoTS on a secure server. It will allow you to reference content on both secure and insecure servers. We’ve configured our server so that content on the server can be referenced either way. When we need to bring in secure content from another server, we can use https://; otherwise we use http://

Browsers these days don't let you mix http and https in the same page (for good reason), so currently your solution, Colleen, is probably best, otherwise pop-up mode is other choice.

Thanks Colleen,
