OK, next try. Still an error message?

Well... we NOWHERE, and I repeat NOWHERE, advertise the URL https://www.openoffice.org ; as a courtesy to those people who prefer HTTPS, we make it available, but if they use broken extensions or paranoid security settings they cannot blame us too much.

Then:

1) I also get (Firefox) the warning about "This website does not supply identity information"; I didn't investigate this one.

2) We still load components from HTTP. Marcus, the Net panel in Firebug will show you the URLs to all components. You will see that starting with a 404 (?) for http://www.openoffice.org/images/formElementDropShadow.png?2011060812 you have a series of action buttons that are all included via HTTP. This is because lines 56- of
https://www.openoffice.org/home.css
contain explicit HTTP links.

You may fix it (but I would need to check the CSS syntax for the url() parameter) by:
- Using /path/to links as Ariel suggested
- Using // URLs (e.g., "//www.openoffice.org" will point to https://www.openoffice.org when called in a https page and to http://www.openoffice.org when called in a http page) ; I'm not a big fan of this solution, I would prefer the former one.

All of this would anyway fix an undocumented, unpublished URL that we make available just to please people (remember, this is a static HTML site with no interactive server-side functionality or logins).

Regards,
  Andrea.
