Description of problem: Mozilla gives a warning dialog when I click I open a link in a new window or new tab, where both the original page and the newly opened one are secure ( https ) and from the same server. The dialog show is : Security Warning You have requested an encrypted page. The web site has identified itself correctly, and information you see or enter on this page can't easily be read by third party. [ ] Alert me whenever I am about to view an encrypted page. [ OK ] This is needless and annoying. This dialog should be only displayed when going from unsecure to secure pages. And maybe when going from one secure site to another. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mozilla-1.2.1-26 How reproducible: easy Steps to Reproduce: 1. visit a secure site, like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/index.cgi 2. right click on any link that points to another page on the same site, like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/redhat-faq.cgi ( the "Help" link at the bottom ), and select "Open Link in New Window" or "Open Link in New Tab", you can also middle click Actual results: security warning dialog appears Expected results: no dialog Additional info:
If this gets fixed upstream, I'll take it but I'm not going to spend time on it.
