Weird bug with Hacker News CSS

a protocol-relative URL to the stylesheet would be handy right about now

THe error I get in developer tools is

SEC7111: HTTPS security is compromised by http://ycombinator.com/images/grayarrow.gif

SEC7111: HTTPS security is compromised by http://ycombinator.com/images/s.gif

etc....

I never thought the site was pretty but I was shocked that it could get a whole lot worse. It must have been pretty jarring if I was able to spot the immediate difference.

Really I don't mind that it isn't pretty as it serves it's purpose well and I like the feel of it as it is (with css).

The css is coming from a non-secure link and is blocked by default. You can see this in like Chrome tools.

I'm guessing, just guessing, that HN being down was to install the security cert. Maybe had to do with that, and some minor assets still being served of of http as opposed to https which is why we are getting the errors and css problems. Should be an easy fix hopefully. Good luck HN.

Things seem to be working now. news.css now loads, and grayarrow.gif is loaded insecurely but still displays.

I'll try to get the rest of the images tonight, but most things should be via SSL now.

seems like it was just fixed

CSS is still being linked from non HTTPS location.

is HN being defaulted to https now but due to some links still referring to http, we are getting these security errors ?

Dude, spacer gifs? My time machine works!
