Hi denis.yaparov

Thanks for getting in touch. Confluence no longer supports IE8 (see here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Supported+Platforms) so I do not believe that this issue is relevant any longer.

The problem still occurs in Confluence 5.3.4, but in opening comment form:

1. Switch Confluence to HTTPS
2. Configure Base URL to use HTTPS scheme
3. Open any page for view, even empty, it is OK here
4. Click on "Write a comment..." form
5. In the middle of loading editor for comment and before activating edit field, IE8 shows prompt for non-secure content.

Using HttpWatch browser plugin I've figured out, that all resources, loaded after (and before) clicking on comment form, was loaded using HTTPS, so possible problem is in icons "data/image".
Please, reopen this or create new defect.

OK,

we solved the issue for CF 4.2.13. Unfortunately, i am not permitted to attach any files to this issue. Maybe some others from the community need that fix, too.

Hi,

we need to get this bug fixed for a Confluence 4.2.13. One of our customer is facing this problem and they are unable to upgrade the Confluence system because of the implemented plugin features and the underlying database. Furthermore, it is not an option to use another browser or the "mixed mode" in IE8 as a workarround.

We, as an atlassian expert now trying to fix this bug for CF 4.2.13. Is there a possibility to get a list of files which are involved in this fix. That would be awesome!

Sandro

Merged to stable already

Hi Satya,
It is expected that this fix will be available in 4.3.4 of Confluence, this is not yet built, but will be made available in December.

Hi Team,
I can see the status of this issue as resolved. Could you please let us the confluence version in which this issue is fixed?

Satya

Hello,
I am grateful that this is being worked upon. Just wanted to highlight that this is hampering a major upgrade at our end (including for other apps like Crowd, since we need apps to be compatible with each other). We are struggling to upgrade with these issues and with the current app out of support, we are living an unnecessary risk. Please kindly treat this at top priority.
Regards
Amaninder

Can we please have an update on this? We need this bug to be addressed ASAP. It is seriously impacting our Confluence upgrade.
