Firefox only blocks active mixed content — things like external JavaScript files sent over HTTP on an HTTPS site. If you want to unblock such content,

  1. Click the Shield Icon on the left side of the address bar.
  2. Click the ▼ drop-down arrow next to the Keep Blocking button, and choose Disable Protection on This Page.

For details, see Mixed content blocking in Firefox

It's a bad idea to disable such blocking globally. If you want to do it anyway,

  1. Type about:config into the address bar and press Enter.
  2. To bypass the warning, press the big button labeled "I'll be careful, I promise!".
  3. In the search box, paste security.mixed_content.block_active_content
  4. In the search results, double-click security.mixed_content.block_active_content to set its value to false.
