What is mixed content?

Mixed content occurs when an HTTPS page loads resources (images, scripts, stylesheets, iframes) over HTTP. Modern browsers block or degrade these requests, breaking functionality and compromising security.

What this checker validates

  • HTTP resource detection on HTTPS pages
  • Browser compatibility and blocking behavior
  • Protocol-relative URL analysis
  • Third-party resource validation

How to fix mixed content

  • Replace all http:// URLs with https://
  • Update CDN and library URLs to HTTPS versions
  • Fix hardcoded links in templates, CSS, and JavaScript
  • Use CSP upgrade-insecure-requests as temporary mitigation

Tool-specific questions

Why do browsers block mixed content?

Browsers block mixed content to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks where HTTP resources could be modified in transit, compromising the security of the HTTPS page.

What's the difference between active and passive mixed content?

Active mixed content (scripts, stylesheets, iframes) is blocked completely, while passive mixed content (images, audio, video) is allowed but shows warnings. Both should be fixed.

Can I use protocol-relative URLs (//example.com)?

Avoid protocol-relative URLs as they can pull HTTP from legacy hosts. Instead, explicitly use https:// URLs for all resources.

How does CSP upgrade-insecure-requests help?

The upgrade-insecure-requests directive tells browsers to try HTTPS for HTTP resources, but it only works if the resource server supports HTTPS. Use it as a temporary bridge while fixing sources.

What if a third-party service doesn't support HTTPS?

Contact the service provider to request HTTPS support, or find an alternative service that supports HTTPS. Never rely on mixed content for production websites.
