Use unencrypted URL to view games

Blogger informs me that the https settings have changed. It seems that if you visit the blog using the encrypted url https://5yearsto5dan.blogspot.com/ (and it might automatically forward you there) you will not be able to see the rendered version of games I post.  With the https version of the url, you'll see the plain sgf, looking something like this:

 

If you prefer to see the rendered games, you'll need to use the non-encrypted url (http version, as opposed to https), i.e., you should go to http://5yearsto5dan.blogspot.com/  With this url, you should see the games rendered, i.e., the above will look like this:

  1. You'll want to change this line
    script src='http://people.brandeis.edu/~rtorrey/go/player/js/all.compressed.js' type='text/javascript'...

    to have src='//people.brandeis.edu...', without the protocol specified. Then, the browser will substitute http / https as appropriate, depending on which protocol you fetch the page on. HTTP/HTTPS mixed content is a common issue with javascript.

  2. Thanks for the suggestion, Brian! But I tried changing it, and it still doesn't render the games for me when I go to https. It looks like I can't get to people.brandeis.edu over https at all, so presumably that's causing the problem.
