    <p>Since yesterday, I got mixed content errors on my website in both Chrome and IE. The error is provoked by the Google Translate script included in the header:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>I downloaded the file element.js and eventually figured out where the bug comes from:</p> <pre><code>var s = window.location.protocol == 'https' ? 'https' : 'http'; </code></pre> <p>Using (any) browser console, we can see that the expression "window.location.protocol" returns "https:" (and not "http") in all secure websites. Therefore, the script tries to load a bunch of CSS/JavaScript resources it needs, prefixing their URL with "http" instead of "https".</p> <p>Which results in the following errors (one per resource):</p> <pre><code>The page at https://mysite.com ran insecure content from http://translate.googleapis.com/[something].css </code></pre> <p>The Google Translate tool is really useful to my users so I cannot remove it. Also, I tried to download the script and run it locally but it doesn't work. I spent a lot of time on that issue, am I the only one in that situation or something changed recently in the Google Translate script?</p> <p><strong>[EDIT]</strong></p> <p>I just took a look at the Google Analytics code and found that:</p> <pre><code>ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www'); </code></pre> <p>This reinforces the idea that the Google Translate script should test for "https:" too.</p>

    2. COHere is the offending line of code: `var s = (false ? 'https' : window.location.protocol == 'https' ? 'https' : 'http') + '://';` This always resolves to using `http://`. I tried to make a bug report but finding where to do so is amazingly difficult. That code comes from: `https://translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit`.

    3. COI just noticed that Chrome 28 returns `https:` for `window.location.protocol` on a secure connection, not `https` like the JS is checking for... (notice the colon)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
