The 1939 Register - findmypast

You probably need to wait until it is some time into the 2nd November in the UK, Toni. At the moment it is still the 1st here.

I just went on to the payment page to see whether FMP accepted Paypal and Firefox tells me the connection is not secure, technical details: page only partially encrypted.

[kiterunner]

Findmypast doesn't accept Paypal, only a debit or credit card.

So I saw Kite. I have some expired credits on there which I could reactivate but I'm not going to risk purchasing until I can be sure the payment page is secure.

[kiterunner]

Do you not get an option to view only the encrypted part of the page, Gillian?

[Just Gillian]

Just went back and checked Kate and no, I don't.

I just have an exclamation mark where the padlock would normally appear and clicking on that gave me the explanation I posted above but no options.

[kiterunner]

I know I have had the option on a certain site before, but unfortunately I can't remember which site or which browser to check it out.

[Just Gillian]

Hopefully it is only a temporary problem.

I've had these credits sitting there for years now. They are reactivated every time I buy an odd month's sub, but only for the duration of the sub. The 1939 Register seems the perfect opportunity to use them at last.

It looks as though you may need to do something with Firefox's "mixed content" settings. There is some info on here:

Thanks for looking into that Kate.

I've had a quick skim through those links but will read it all more thoroughly in the morning when I'm fresh.

The payment page for FMP on IE doesn't seem to have a padlock either, but it's so long since I used IE that perhaps they don't even have the padlock security indicator on there nowadays.
