There is something that I've been wondering about for a while now: When I connect to a SSL/TLS-secured Web site, Firefox allows me to click on the identity box and the "More information..." button, and it will give me details about the certificate, encryption grade, and key length. However, whenever a page is only partially encrypted (which seems to be quite often the case) Firefox refuses to provide any information about the cipher or the key length used. I have even installed the Calomel SSL Validation plug-in to see if I could get more information, but it behaves in the same way.
Is there any technical reason for this? Or is this just something that was overlooked? Knowing the encryption details would be useful even on a page that is only partially encrypted. -- frigidcode.com theologia.indicium.us
