Thread:Extension talk:Maps/SSL and grey boxes

I have an internal company wiki that uses SSL with a valid third party certificate.

Using Chrome 23.0.1271.64 or Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 8, when I attempt a Google Map in my SSL-encrypted wiki, I get a grey box with the warning Your browser is not compatible with Google Maps v3.

If I change the mapping service to openlayers, it works fine.


 * Internet Explorer prompts that some portions of the page are insecure, and gives an option to display them and then the maps render.
 * Chrome just denies the requests altogether.
 * Everything works fine in Firefox.

I suspect this is browser specific behavior, but I thought it might be useful to others to document it.
