We have topics that contain links to Internet pages, on our intranet, that may or may not be secure. When we access a Topic that has a link like this we get the message:

This page contains both secure and non-secure items. Do you want to download the non-secure items?

This happens on MS Internet Explorer. According to Microsoft this message is there by design when connecting to a secure Web site (https://) that contains both secure and non-secure items and cannot be disabled. Is there a feature in Twiki that can get around this problem or is this something that can be added? If we access our intranet via Netscape Navigator, the topic page will not show any of the nonsecure items. This is mainly an inconvenience.

While I'm at it....I would like to be able to edit the text in a table without having to add formating in each cell, i.e. font size for entire table.

This is done by design in IE (and also in Netscape I believe). Imagine a secure page that has a form with an action to a non secure script; The user would get the impression that the page is secured but sending the form would actually be insecure. I don't see any way of disabling this with TWiki from the server, in fact this should not be possible, otherwise a malicious hacker could take advantage of that.

Regarding your table question, you probably can do that with style sheets.
