Outdatedbrowser.com and https
Author: Mike G.Hi,
I have just set up my first https site, but on the home page I get a warning message from Google Chrome on the right of the address bar shown with a shield wit a red X.
The message is 'This page is trying to load scripts from unauthenticated sources' This is due to the following script in the source code:
<script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = function(){ checkBrowserCompatibility('Your browser does not support the features necessary to display this website.','Your browser may not support the features necessary to display this website.','[1]Update your browser[/1] or [2]continue without updating[/2].','http://outdatedbrowser.com/'); }; x5engine.utils.currentPagePath = 'index.html'; x5engine.boot.push(function () { x5engine.imPageToTop.initializeButton({}); }); </script>
How can I stop Website x5 adding this please?
I notice now that it is in all my sites, but it wan't an issue before having an https site.
In the meantime I have used an editer via ftp to remove the code off the webserver. however I presume anytime I update the site it will put it back in!
Please can tell me how I can stop the program doing this please. V13.
thanks,
Mike.
Mike, this error message is to advise you that your website purports to be on a secure site, but it is not.
The simplest solution is almost certainly to contact your hosting service for implementation of SSL if you think this is justified for your site content. Note that this costs money for each of your websites, this article may assist.

No this is not the case.
Website X5 inserts this code in the site:
<script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = function(){ checkBrowserCompatibility('Your browser does not support the features necessary to display this website.','Your browser may not support the features necessary to display this website.','[1]Update your browser[/1] or [2]continue without updating[/2].','http://outdatedbrowser.com/'); }; x5engine.utils.currentPagePath = 'index.html'; x5engine.boot.push(function () { x5engine.imPageToTop.initializeButton({}); }); </script>
You will see that the script points to http://outdatedbrowser.com which is not https hence the error displayed.
I need to know how to stop website x5 inserting this code.
When you remove it all is fine, but I don't want to have to keep manually editing.
Mike, do you have a link to your site? I do not believe removing the script will stop the error, but I am prepared to be wrong (again).
As I understand it the message is triggered when the site environment does not support a secure connection by the browser, or if the browser (eg IE6) cannot support site requirements.
Hello Mike,
This happens when you have a custom HTML code with a link or a script loaded from a http:// URL and your website is using https://
Please write me the the link to your website so I can see on what it depends.
Many thanks!

Hi,
I removed the code from my site by manually editing the source code so all is OK now.
https://www.pantomimescripts.co.uk/
but if I change my site websitex5 will put it back in again.
The same code is on your own site https://www.websitex5.com
<script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = function(){ checkBrowserCompatibility('Your browser does not support the features necessary to display this website.','Your browser may not support the features necessary to display this website.','[1]Update your browser[/1] or [2]continue without updating[/2].','http://outdatedbrowser.com/'); }; x5engine.utils.currentPagePath = 'help-center.html'; x5engine.boot.push(function () { x5engine.imPageToTop.initializeButton({}); }); </script>
It is calling a script from an http site
Is there any way to stop websitex5 putting it in?
thanks,
Mike.
Hello Mike,
This script is not the cause since on our website it is the same and it is not showing any errors on the address bar.
Can you please upload the project on a subfolder without removing any code from it and then write me here the URL so I can check what causes it?
Many thanks!

Hi, it doesn't always cause a problem, but I want to know how to stop wesite x5 generating this code.
I have another website www.staffordwingtyun.co.uk (not https) that displays a message on my phone that my browser may not support the features neccessary to display the website. This is an annoying message as my browser is fine.
How do I eliminate this code from website x5?
Thanks,
Mike.

By the way, I have just removed that script from the homepage manually, but it will generate it again if I make a change to the site.

If removing the code annoys you too much, you may be able to change WX5 by editing the system variables under content language, although in my opinion this is unwise and you would be better advised to fix the problem rather than hide it.
