Security problem with a pdf.

Hello,
 
      I am creating a pdf file with FOP in my application server. I am
leaving the file in a temporary directory and I am reading and writing
on the out the pdf file in a JSP. My server is secure (https://...) and
when the jsp has left the file on the navigator I am getting the next
message:  
 
“The page has secure elements and not secure elements. ¿would you like
to see no secure elements?” (translation from the spanish to english)
 
   Does anyone have any idea?
 
 Thanks in advance.

I ran into the same problem with my servlet pushing PDF directly to the user
on a POST. If you are pushing on a POST, IE (and maybe Netscape, I don't
remember, I tried to fix this about 2 years ago) automatically put an XHTML
doctype reference in the HTML that is not gotten over HTTPS. As far as I can
tell, this was the reason for my problems. It may be the same for you.

  This has nothing to do with FOP. You page has embedded link which is not
https.
