Subject:[Google-Gadgets-API] URL content type and mixed content warnings

Hi Google and fellow devs,

I was wondering on the exact meaning of the following statements within the gadget tutorials. The text says:

"If the gadget requires login, use a URL content type. See Writing Gadgets that Require Login or Cookies for possible gotchas. Note that HTTPS gadgets issue "mixed content" warnings under Internet Explorer, which can be annoying for users."

Assuming one uses the URL content type (and thereby placing a HTTPS sourced IFrame within the page), are there still causes for the mixed content warnings to appear? I assume all normal content requested within the IFrame is also https from the same url source. Or is this remark made more in the context of the usage of the Html content type gadgets?

Kind regards,

wpa
