How the Mixed Content Checker Works
The tool fetches the page HTML and looks for insecure resources that are loaded from HTTP URLs.
- HTTPS validation, the checker confirms the tested page is served over HTTPS.
- Resource extraction, it scans images, scripts, stylesheets, iframes, video, audio, object tags, and inline CSS url() references.
- Insecure URL detection, any resource that starts with http:// is flagged as mixed content.
- Grouped reporting, results are shown by resource type so developers can fix the right template or asset path.
Why Mixed Content Matters
HTTPS is only as strong as the resources loaded into the page. Insecure assets can create security warnings and visual breakage.
- Trust, users notice browser warnings and broken lock icons.
- Security, HTTP scripts and iframes can be tampered with in transit.
- Conversion, checkout, lead forms, and booking flows should never show insecure content warnings.
- Technical SEO, pair this check with the Security Headers Checker and SSL Certificate Checker.
Mixed Content Fix Table
| Issue | Fix |
|---|---|
| HTTP image URL | Upload the image to HTTPS hosting or update the source URL to https://. |
| HTTP script | Replace the script with a secure source. Never ignore insecure JavaScript. |
| HTTP stylesheet | Serve CSS from the same HTTPS domain or a trusted HTTPS CDN. |
| Old embed code | Replace legacy iframe or object embeds with current HTTPS embed snippets. |

Mixed Content Types Reference
Not all mixed content is treated the same. Browsers split insecure HTTP resources on an HTTPS page into two categories. Active mixed content can alter the entire page, so browsers block it. Passive mixed content cannot run code, so browsers usually load it but downgrade the security indicator or show a warning. Knowing the category tells you how urgent each fix is.
| Type | Examples | Browser behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Active mixed content | Scripts (<script>), stylesheets (<link rel="stylesheet">), iframes, XHR / fetch requests, and font resources loaded over HTTP. | Blocked. These can change or take over the whole page, so browsers refuse to load them on an HTTPS page. The resource simply fails. |
| Passive mixed content | Images (<img>), audio, and video sources loaded over HTTP. | Warned. Usually still loaded (and increasingly auto-upgraded to HTTPS), but the lock icon is downgraded or a warning is shown. |
