We have a server running IIS and have some folders running under https, but most are open. The problem I'm having is when someone is directed from a page in the secure section of the site, the relative link brings up https. For example:

link to

/pictures

goes to

http://www.mysite.com/pictures

But if someone is on a secured part of the site

https://www.mysite.com/shoppingcart

And then clicks back to /pictures, they get

https://www.mysite.com/pictures

so the pictures directory is shown under https. My problem is, they get a 404 not found message when this happens.

I could not find anything in the settings that would indicate that secured connections are pulling files from anywhere different than non-secured. If I type http or https on the main page of the site both come up fine. But if I try to add the https:// in a folder level, I get a 404.

Any ideas why this might be happening?
