FP2000: Searches Issued from Secure Pages Return Insecure Links (264250)



The information in this article applies to:

  • FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions from Microsoft

This article was previously published under Q264250

SYMPTOMS

When you issue a search from a page that contains a FrontPage search component and uses a secure Uniform Resource Locator (a URL such as https://servername), the results of the search contain hyperlinks that use http rather than https.

CAUSE

The base URL in the head of the http document that is returned by the server extensions is incorrectly coded to use http, causing the hyperlinks on the page to be insecure.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions.
