Question

I’m experiencing an odd problem where my page’s SSL breaks in firefox if I incorporate a JQUERY UI Dialog box.

Works fine in I.E. 8 and Chrome.

I read about an issue introduced by CSS base64 image encoding breaking the SSL but I’ve tried removing the style sheet completely and the problem still occurs.

Has anyone run into this? If not can you suggest a good way to progress in hunting the cause down? I’m currently cutting code out and retrying but it’s painfully slow (easier if it was a static element).

The call that breaks the SSL is…

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

jQuery(document).ready(function() {

    $( "#dialog" ).dialog();

});

</script>

So as soon as the dialog box ID is ripped out and moved to the end of the document the problem occurs.

I think what’s going on here is that the jquery-ui-1.8.2.custom.css file is referencing images that are redirecting to the non-SSL 404 page.
