How I can add any particular site to trusted list just like IE for lower down the security ?

more options

For Firefox 23:

I am getting the issue of Mixed_Content.Block in firefox 23 when I am calling WCF Service by jQuery with HTTPS binding. so I want to add the WCF service link in trusted list of site just like in IE to lower down the security and remove the Mixed_Content.Block issue.

When I disabled the Mixed_Content.Block form about:config then it is working fine.

Please help me out to resolve this issue.

Currently, the mixed content block has only a global on/off setting, with a per page exception through the shield icon. A per-site exception has been proposed, but is still in discussion, so it's unlikely to arrive in Firefox 24.

I'm not sure where the mixed content problem arises: you have HTTP calling HTTPS returning HTTP??

Yes, HTTPS calling returning HTTP

If it's your service, can you possibly serve it over HTTPS or insert the content into the document directly rather than framing it? I probably don't have the complete picture of what you're doing...

Hello jscher2000,

I am also facing the same problem, There is a service run on client machine which only runs over http and we can not change it to HTTPS, As our website run over https and it has to make the connection with Http service on clinet machine through Jquery. As on firefox 23 and above versions, a feature Mixed_Content.Block has been introduced which restricts the WebSite(HTTPS) to call the service(http) on client side. So do you have any so that in our request we can append any thing which enables the communication between web site and service. You can refer the below link to know what kind of implementation is

Hi anurag_sharma4u, if the user has maintained the default setting of blocking mixed active content, you cannot override that in your page.

If you cannot run the WCF service over HTTPS, you can proxy the connection. In other words, on your secure server, you create a page that makes a server-to-server request in the scripting language of your choice, and returns the results to the browser.
