Issue/Introduction

Exception pages are web pages displayed to users under specific conditions.

An exception page does not fully display in browser when accessing HTTPS website that is denied and set up to return an exception page.

Issue does not occur when accessing an HTTP website which is denied and set up to return an exception page.

The issue is observed when using IE10 setup with "Only secure content is displayed".

Selecting "Show all content" in the browser will display the exception page in HTTPS or HTTP.

Cause

The exception page uses a CSS file that is hosted on a different server. The URL to the CSS file uses an HTTP URL.

For Example:
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="http://www.example.com/css/reset-fonts.css" type="text/css" />
</head>

<body>
  <div id="TEST">
    <p> </p>
  </div>
</body>
</html>


As such, the issue is expected because the webpage is trying to display elements with both secure (HTTPS/SSL) and non-secure (HTTP) web server connections.

This issue is due to browser settings and NOT a proxy issue.

Resolution

Do one of the following to resolve this issue:


Option A
Per Microsoft Knowledge Base Article, disable the “Only secure content is displayed” message.

1. Start Internet Explorer.
2. On the Tool menu, click Internet Options.
3. Click the Security tab, and then click Custom level.
4. In the Settings box, scroll down to the Miscellaneous section, and under Display mixed content choose Enable (will display non-secure items without asking)

Option B
Change all HTTP URL to HTTPS.

For example:
From
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="http://www.example.com/css/reset-fonts.css" type="text/css" />

To
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="https://www.example.com/css/reset-fonts.css" type="text/css" />
