How to cater HTTP and HTTPS requests on a website?

I have a videojs player in which I will load interactive elements like images/gmaps etc. The most important is images. To make the player secure, I am planning add a SSL certficate but the images coming on the player can be from http or https. How do I handle this?

just place the link and leave rest on Server that either to put HTTPS or HTTP

do something like this

<img src = "//www.website.com/image_path_goes_here">

or for a tag

<a href = "/your_path">Click To Load</a>

You can't and load insecure content over a secure connection. The // trick is only going to work if the images are available over https.

One thing you could do is use a server side script with cURL to temporarily host the images you want, or to send them to the browser in an encoded format over https
