Disable blocking of unsecure scripts on a specific website
I am using an online high school class that only partially encrypts it's webpages. Many of the scripts on the pages are unencrypted. Firefox blocks the script every time I load the page. If I select "Disable protection on this page" it will only allow the scripts as long as I remain logged in. If I leave the page, then return, the scripts will be blocked again. How do I keep the scripts allowed permenantley?

When the mixed active content blocking feature was first turned on last August in Firefox 23, there some discussion about creating a site exception feature. Ultimately, it was concluded that most sites were quickly adapting and it didn't make sense to build this feature because it might discourage others from improving their security. So currently there is only the master on/off switch to work with.
If you want to easily turned mixed active content blocking on and off for all sites you can get this extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/toggle-mixed-active-content/
Note: I haven't tested it with the new interface of Firefox 29-30. If you don't see its "A" icon on the main toolbar, check the Customize dialog to see whether it's in there and can be dragged out to the toolbar or menu. See: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars.
