Embedded Map add-on doesn't work with all browsers?

[tatejoris]

Embedded Map option - is it buggy or do I need to alert people to change settings on their browser of choice?
Hi, it appears that the add-on ( iframe src="https://vulturesresightings.crowdmap.com/iframemap" width="515px" height="430px" (I've left out the s in case it confuses this wiki editor)) which I've added to my blog - tatejoris.org (it's a blogger blog - as a test of this cool embedded map feature) is not always visible to people with different browsers - it works fine when viewed with Chrome (on OSX and M$FT platforms), but so far not with Safari or Firefox (I haven't tried M$FT Exploder). It doesn't work on the blogger app for Ipad.
Should I be warning prospective viewers on my blog that some browsers may not work, or they need to switch things in their settings?
Any advice would be useful! Thanks!

tatejoris,

I haven't worked on the iframe map in a long time, so it's very possible
that with the new changes to Ushahidi 2.7 and advances in browsers, that
something could have broke. You're more than welcome to work with the code
and try to fix the issue.

Cheers,

HI John,

thanks...I'm not a coder, but Ushahidi-forum advised me to send my query to this forum. Anyhow, I'll put in a brief warning on my crowdmap about possible browser issues. Mostly it seems to be an issue with security certificates... and I do look forward to migrating my classic crowdmap to the new, soonish.

If it's an issue with security certificates then the problem is with how
your sites are setup. Especially if one site is running HTTPS and the other
isn't.

Thanks John, this does make sense; I'll let people know.
