hello, for details on why this blocking mechanism was introduced in firefox please refer to Mixed content blocking in Firefox.

if you'd like to generally turn of mixed content blocking nevertheless, enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named security.mixed_content.block_active_content. double-click it and change its value to false.
