I was looking at www.barclaycard.co.uk and trying to logon today when
internet explorer said "show the non secure stuff?" and I said no. the
actual login/password bit then dissapeared.
I assume this meant the pretty graphics were https secure but the actual
login wasn't?
So how can I be absolutely sure a http request is secure?
A quick look at the html, and I couldn't see why it should not be https.
