when passing form info from page to page how do you disable the Internet Explorer 'security notice' window that warns you are submitting form info that is not secure.

i'm guessing its a javascript thing coz the security notice looks like a javascript prompt?

just so we dont get our wires crossed... i'm not talking about disabling the prompt in my own browser ....i'm asking if there's a nifty bit of javascript/ php or html that i could include in my scripts to turn this prompt off when visiters submit form data from page to page ...i'm also guessing that the nifty bit of code is just a way of making the form data secure to prevent the secure notice from popping up??

cheers!
 
Tippy,

Let's think for a second now. Let me ask you a question.

"Is there any way I can upload all the files on a computer to my server without the user knowing?"

Yes, there's a way, just write a virus of some variety. These security alerts are there for a reason - to protect the security of the user. They can turn them off in their browser preferences, but that's all.

cheers cLFaVA ...point taken, but i'll rephrase the question...

how do i secure my form info (encryption?) so IE doesn't prompt security notices each time form data is submitted?

is there a quick encyrption fix that i could add to my scripts?
 
Your form would need to be on a secure server. Those are the servers whose pages begin with https:// rather than http:// and whose IE status bar has a little lock displayed.
