Hi,
I'm getting a couple of libraries from Google / Microsoft CDNs.

ONLY one page on the system uses SSL but since I'm referencing libraries on the master page I'm getting the javascript libraries using the SSL so the single page that actually requires it doesn't throw security errors because accessing unsafe resources.

I've read that the browser cache doesn't work for most of the browsers if the resource is loaded using SSL, my test using fiddler indicates the opposite (Firefox and IE).

What's the truth? I'm using the CDN for improving performance so if getting the library using SSL is against my purpose, I would revert this "improvement".

I could build send the code for referencing the library on the code behind ans use SSL or not according the case, but I would like to avoid this.

Thanks!

In IE it is an option

@GôTô: I can't rely on users changing browser configuration :) I want to know if with the basic settings that 99% of the users have ssl resources are cached or not. Thanks!
