Mixed Content Message |
|
|
|
When you login to eVA, Internet
Explorer will always prompt you with the below dialog box.
NOTE: You should always click No if you are using
IE 8. |
|
|
The reason for the warning is
that you’re on an SSL-secured (https protocol) page that is
attempting to load non-SS (http protocol) content. If you want
to display mixed content in IE 8 you should click "No". |
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Q.
Is there away to turn this feature off in IE 8?
A. Yes! but keep in mind
that your organization may block or reset this option.
Q.
What if I use IE 7
A. IE 7 and earlier
versions asked the user "Do you want to display the secure
and non secure content?" You click "Yes" If you want to
display mixed content. This change creates confusion so remember
if you use IE8 select No and if you use IE7 or below
click Yes.
You can turn of this feature in previous versions of IE as well.
Just follow the directions below. |

Internet Explorer Browser recommendations & tips |
 |
If you are
having a problem using eVA, you may need to change
one or more of your browser settings.
• Note that
your IT department might automatically reset
your browser settings back to a certain
standard.
• Changing
your browser settings may make your computer
behave differently on other websites.
• For example, Clearing Saved Passwords or
removing AutoComplete means the system will
no longer fill
in your user name and password for you.
|
|
|
AutoComplete and Saved Passwords
If you are using this feature, you may encounter problems
when changing or requesting a password reset in eVA. Since this
feature is storing and remembering your password you will need
to clear the old stored password. To learn how to turn this
feature off and to clear saved passwords
click here. |
|
|
AOL
It is okay to use AOL to connect to the Internet, but the AOL
browser will not work with eVA. The AOL browser looks like
Internet Explorer. The solution is to stay connected through
AOL, but to close the AOL browser and go to the Start button and
Launch Internet Explorer. |
|
|
If you are using any add-ons
like the Google toolbar, be
sure that it is not blocking pop-ups
To disable the Google Pop-up
blocker
If your Toolbar has a wrench icon,
follow these steps:
Click the wrench icon on your Google Toolbar.
1.
Click the
Tools
tab in the 'Toolbar Options' window.
2.
Deselect the 'Pop-up
blocker' checkbox.
3.
Click the
Save
button.
Also, Google Pop-ups must be allowed each time you launch your
browser while using eVA. |
