Website fails to load due to ssl certificate - html

My friend and I recently launched a website, everything worked fine until using cloudflare to gain an SSL Certificate. Now when I load the website, it loads an empty website, as opposed to the correct contents. When I access the website through the direct IP address, it loads correctly. When I use a VPN I can often get the website to work for me, but I cannot fix this problem for the life of me. Is this something anybody knows the fix to?
You are all gentle(wo)men and scholars.
I tried restarting my router, singing to it, disconnecting and reconnecting, using different devices, and using mobile data on my phone, but they all result in the same outcome.

Certain webpages only half loading

Good day,
Since moving house and having my new internet (and new ISP) installed, some web-pages only half-load and I constantly get cloud-flare warnings requesting that I confirm that I am not a robot. I did not have this problem with the previous ISP. I have attached some examples of the issues I'm having. This does not appear to be a "Chrome-only" thing as I get the same results with IE.
1. The first image shows the web page loading, but not giving all the information.
2. The second image shows the warnings that constantly pop up.
3. The third image is just an example of buttons that won't load on clicking, and some of those buttons don't even let me click them at
all.
Issue:
Can't load into certain pages, and can't click certain buttons, and keep getting this cloud-flare thing.
Things I have tried:
- Restarting computer
- Reinstalling chrome
- DNS flushing using the command prompt
- Changing DNS to the google DNS
Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I'm imagining your computer is the same, but your router is new/different (for the new ISP)? Maybe your computer has existing proxy settings which were specific to your old ISP, and won't work for the new one.
Search 'proxy' in Windows search and disable any custom proxies.
I've got the same issue as well when i moved into my new house. When i researched some more and talked with my tech-savvy cousin, he said that it could be because the internet connection isn't strong (some of the data gets lost in the way) or the ISP isn't allowing you to do the things that you want to do. Sometimes this occurs when you are asking for a lot of data. It is a security feature. Call them and ask why this is happening. Maybe it's different.
Also, check if you have a VPN on. I could also disrupt the websites.
Hope this was useful!!
Try connecting a different device (like an Xbox, or PS, or your phone) and see what happens. If it can connect to the devices mentioned above correctly, then the problem is with your PC or laptop or apple device.
Apparently the issue had to do with the IP address. They gave me my own one and all was well in the world.

Website updating on some devices but not others

My website only works on my laptop and phone! On my ipad, (it is a school ipad, managed by the district) the website doesn't update. I have cleared the cache. I need to present this next monday (my classmates will also be using their school ipads) and it was working fine earlier. PLEASE HELP

EDIT: The website was updating fine before today
Replying to the comments:
Yes, i tried incognito mode but it made no difference.
Yes, what you see is right but on my school ipad i think that it my school is blocking my server or something. Is that possible?
Since we have already determined that your web site has been updated correctly and the files are OK on the server, it's been narrowed down to possibly your school ipad blocking your server. You can try accessing it through a web based proxy for a quick test. Try this service:
https://www.hidemyass.com/proxy
Something else you can try is to upload your web page to another server. Since it's just one page, you don't need anything special. In fact, you could save the file on any free hosting service. Here is an example I created on HTML Pasta:
https://33d08f2c-9365-4692-bc3c-3ed68c454c41.htmlpasta.com
You can create your own at https://htmlpasta.com
EDIT: P.S. Your school ipad is probably not blocking anything but has some kind of cache that you have not cleared. Since you mentioned that you cleared the browser cache already, it may be routing your network through a school proxy or something which is caching the old site on the network level (or some other type of cache)

Webpage not displaing things as they should appear in opencart

I am very new to stack over flow so please pardon my mistakes.
I am using opencart platform for my custom built ecommerce store. The website was woring perfectly till now, but I have just bought SSL certificate form comodo and installed it successfully to the store.
Now, I am facing an ISSUE of webpage streching or uncompressing, honestly I dont have an specific name for the problem but some of the experienced people can tell about it.
So, please suggest me something on the issue showed in the attached picture.

I visited your website and its looks fine to me. There could be multiple possibilities for these kind of issues
Major one is Chrome, the browser itself. Many users face such issues you could possibly check and update your browser and Display Drivers if you haven't done that also try and check your website on other browsers too.
If you are using a 3rd Party template for your opencart installation, make sure your using the most up-to-date version of that theme and also make sure it matched with your current opencart version.
If you are using third party services such as cloudflare for DNS resolution and minification of Javascript, CSS and HTML make sure you turn off rocketloader and keep settings to default.
Hope that helps. Please keep me posted on this.
Also you mentioned you are using Comodo SSL certificate. Request you to read this page and make sure your website is secure.(https://blogs.comodo.com/e-commerce/heartbleed-bug-comodo-urges-openssl-users-to-apply-patch/)
In case the above points doesn't help make.I would request you to re-inspect your SSL installation (http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/opencart/setting-up-payment-gateways/how-to-enable-ssl-connection-in-opencart)

WebBrowser control and HTTPS in Windows Phone 8

I am developing my first Windows Phone 8 Application. I have requirement to load facebook login page in WebBrowser control. I am facing an interesting issue now, When I test the app in my device. Links with https is not loading, it loads a page saying "We're having trouble with this sites security certificate" etc.
Does anybody face similar issue ? Do I need to make any settings in my application in-order to access https sites ?
Thanks in advance,
- Anwer
I found an answer from Ben and it useful for u to solve the problem
trusted companies issue secure IDs to websites
There's a couple possiblities here:
1) If you get the same error acessing the site on other devices (make sure the URL says https, not http), it means it's the sites problem. Your phone is warning you that it doesn't trust them- for all you know, you're not actually connecting to the site at all.
2) If you don't get the same error on other devices, it means that your phone somehow lost its list of trusted ID issuers. There is a way to add certificates back, but it's probably easier at this point just to wipe the phone and restore it to factory settings.

HTML5 localStorage for offline websites

I'm creating a simple app that a user will download onto his/her computer and then open it with a browser off the harddrive. I need it to be able to store data, using any of the standard browsers. (Although data does not have to be accessible between browsers).
As described by this link, If using HTML5's localstorage, Internet Explorer throws an error if the url of the site is something like file:///C:/Web/mylocaltodo.html. It says it can be gotten round by using 'localhost', but the sample application it provides doesn't how how this would be done.
Is it possible to save data locally for an offline site without the user installing a web server on localhost? And have it work on any modern browser, including Internet Explorer?
Thanks
Although the question is still old, I was facing a similiar problem when creating an application that should synchronize between multiple windows.
So I'd just like to share my experiences with other developers, that may avoid a long search for the problem.
In fact, due to the same origin policy (as for local file access via XMLHttpRequest), access is denied for reading the localStorage, so that changes won't get synchronized between windows.
In short: If you're using file:/// as URL, it won't be able to synchronize the localStorage. Using a simple webserver and http://localhost/ as URL, it will.
Strange behavior and sadly, there is no error message in the javascript console. Keep that in mind when trying out some localStorage experiments offline and don't get crazy searching for the issue in your code ;-)
