Avoid Internet Explorer Warning when embedding Youtube on HTTPS site?
- by pellepim
On a HTTPS site embedding youtube clips works great in all browser, except Internet Explorer where I get this famous little warning message:
"Do you want to view only the webpage
content that was delivered securely?
This page contains content that will
not be delivered using a secure HTTPS
... etc"
I've tried to solve this in several ways. The most promising one was to use the ProxyPass functionality in Apache to map to YouTube.
Like this:
ProxyPass: /youtube/ http://www.youtube.com
ProxyPassReverse: /youtube/ http://www.youtube.com
This gets rid of the annoying warning. However, the youtube SWF fails to start streaming The SWF i manage to load into the browser simply states : "An error occurred, please try again later".
Potential solutions are perhaps:
Download youtube FLV:s and serve them out of own domain (gah)
Use custom FLV-player and stream only FLV:s from youtube over a https proxy?
