622776 - MetaWebPro font should be served over SSL when requested

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

Right now the font is being served over plain text no matter what and is breaking our SSL if you go to https://www.mozilla.org/.  The URL it's requesting supports SSL, it just needs to ask for it.

The template actually tries to request the fonts via HTTPS if the page is using HTTPS by checking $_SERVER['HTTPS']. This doesn't appear to be set, though. I suspect this is due to the load-balancing setup, or some other server configuration issue.

Wil, can you advise on who might be best to investigate this? It's hard to debug without knowing more about the internal mozilla hosting infrastructure.

That's true, it's often not set by default.  Jeremy can either fix it or tell us who to talk to - I'm not sure if m.o is behind zeus or the NS.

If this can't just be a relative url, I think you can use '//www.mozilla.com/img/fonts/MetaWebPro-Bold.woff' and firefox will determine http vs. https for you.
