Hi -- On my site http://www.aaa.com I have a link to https://www.bbb.com/redirect. /redirect is handled by Redirect.pm, a mod_perl 2 module which sets a cookie and redirects. The redirect goes over to http://www.ccc.com. Note aaa is regular http, bbb is secure https, and ccc is regular http. The redirect is simple 
my $cookie_out = CGI::Cookie->new( 
-name => $hitid, 
-value => $cell, 
-domain => 'www.bbb.com', 
-path => '/', 
-secure => $ENV{HTTPS}, 
-expires => '+1d', 
); 

$r->err_headers_out->add('Set-Cookie' => 
$cookie_out); 
$r->headers_out->set(Location => $url); 
return &Apache::REDIRECT;

In Netscape, when clicking on the link from aaa to bbb, the brower puts up a popup warning "You have requested an encrypted page that contains some unencrypted information..." What does this warning mean? The bbb page is contentless, just a redirect -- what is insecure on it? Is there some mod_perl magic that would avoid this warning? Thanks
