Re: Disabling Display Mixed Content in IE

[Gregory Baker <travelingregbaker () yahoo com>]

Hi there,

We ran into a similar problem with our mobile devices accessing an internally developed web portal and our web folks 
re-coded the target web pages to eliminate the errors. This will be an option if you control the target pages.

I'll leave to other on the list to discuss the merits or demerits of changing the device browser security settings.

Regards.
