Hmm, perhaps you should just spend some time debugging your ScreenURL
function. Also, you might want to look through the archives for this
mailing list (perhaps doing a search for "freetrade ssl" at Google will
help), as this has been dealt with before. As a last note, perhaps you
should do your development on your own machine so that you don't have to
deal with these issues. When it's time to go live, you should probably
have a dedicated box as well as your own certificate. Having a
dedicated box increases security, and the cost of a certificate is small
if you are doing an ecommerce site.

There are a couple ways to do this. One solution is to output images
using an outputImage() function that automatically sets the full path to
the image depending on wether your are in SSL or not. Another solution
(you may implement both, if desired) is to have your own server as I
suggested earlier and set up the SSL htdocs directory to be the same as
the normal htdocs directory. This gets rid of the need for changing the
image paths dynamically (although doing so is always a nice feature). I
believe that the above two solutions are better than using an "if"
statement in your layout module in order to dynamically choose SSL vs.
non-SSL versions of a navigation module.
