Using javascript:OpenUrl() on SSL Causes "Mixed Content" Warning Dialog Box (269682)

<A HREF="Javascript:Name()">
				

<A HREF="Vbscript:Name()">
				

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, use script code that is similar to the following sample code to disable the warning:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function OnClickHandler()
{ 
  var el=null;
  var flag=true;
  el = event.srcElement;
  // Do the While loop to find out if any of the parent elements 
  // are an A HREF.
  // This is necessary because in Internet Explorer 4.x, you can 
  // receive events of any element including the <B> tag.   
  while (flag && el)   
  {
    if (el.tagName == "A")
    { 
      flag=false;
      if (el.protocol == "javascript:")
      {
        execScript(el.href, "javascript");
        // A window.event.returnValue=false is performed so that the 
        // default action does not happen - which in case of an HREF
        // will be navigating to a link. 
        window.event.returnValue = false; 
      }
      if (el.protocol == "vbscript:")
      { 
        execScript(el.pathname, "vbscript");
        window.event.returnValue = false; 
      }
    } 
    else 
      el = el.parentElement; 
  } 
} // end OnClickHandler()

 document.onclick = OnClickHandler; // set the On click handler for the document 
//-->
</script>
