The <ice-cc:slider/> composite component is implemented with the YUI library. The generated HTML includes JS from Yahoo CDN (yui.yahooapi.com). When viewed with IE9 + SSL, a security warning prompt appears indicating that non-secure content is being loaded.

The icefaces-enterprise-comps-showcase.war can be used to reproduce the issue. Setting up SSL with Tomcat requires the following:

1. $JAVA_HOME/bin/keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA

This command will create a new file, in the home directory of the user under which you run it, named ".keystore". To specify a different location or filename, add the -keystore parameter, followed by the complete pathname to your keystore file, to the keytool command shown above.

2. Uncomment the following in Tomcat's server.xml and also add the SSL specific attributes:

<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
               maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
               keystoreFile="/Users/apple/.keystore" keystorePass="changeit"
               clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />
