Permission denied on jquery.min.js file in DotNetNuke

I have created some jQuery and put it in an ascx include. It works fine on regular pages, however when I load a secured page on my site I get the following javascript error.

Permission Denied jquery.min.js Code: 0

Any ideas?

Assuming you're using the hosted jQuery by the Google CDN, you can change the hosted script address to use https instead of http:

Host -> Host Settings -> Advanced Settings -> jQuery Settings ->

This permissions error can occur when you're attempting to make an $.ajax() request using jQuery from a secure URL (https) to a non-secure URL (http) even though they are the same domain. Changing the url parameter to use a relative URL should fix the issue.

Answer 2

How are you referencing the jQuery min file? If you are using a fully qualified URL to the library, and that URL specifies HTTP rather than HTTPS, this would cause the error you describe.

For example:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.example.com/scripts/jquery.min.js"></script>

This would cause errors if your site was being served under HTTPS.

In my experience, the "Permission Denied" error comes from trying to access a window that is in a different domain than you. In the code that you listed, is ctl a reference to a popup window, or some window other than the window that the code is running in? If that window is at http://mysite.com and your script is running on https://mysite.com, you'll get the Permission Denied error.
