Do you mean the Cobweb .js and .css references in autogenerated html pages containing Cobweb-rendered scenes?

Currently am using form recommended by Cobweb, i.e.

	http://create3000.de/cobweb/getting-started/

       <link rel="stylesheet"
             type="text/css"
             href="https://cdn.rawgit.com/create3000/cobweb/master/stable/latest/cobweb.css"/>
       <script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.rawgit.com/create3000/cobweb/master/stable/latest/cobweb.min.js"></script>

If so, I can change the conversion script to http as follows:

       <link rel="stylesheet"
             type="text/css"
             href="http://cdn.rawgit.com/create3000/cobweb/master/stable/latest/cobweb.css"/>
       <script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.rawgit.com/create3000/cobweb/master/stable/latest/cobweb.min.js"></script>

Can you or Holger please advise on preferred form?

Meanwhile have been using http (not https) for X3DOM:

       <!-- Developer X3DOM release version: http://www.x3dom.org/download/dev -->
       <link rel="stylesheet"
             type="text/css"
             href="http://www.x3dom.org/download/dev/x3dom.css"/>
       <script type="text/javascript"
               src="http://www.x3dom.org/download/dev/x3dom-full.js"/>

... but am seeing https now used on the HelloX3DOM example:

	https://doc.x3dom.org/tutorials/basics/hello/HelloX3DOM.html

	view-source:https://doc.x3dom.org/tutorials/basics/hello/HelloX3DOM.html

Can you or someone on Fraunhofer team advise on preferred form?

Hmmm, side-by-side display comparisons of each event utility node versus a corresponding Script node might be interesting.


all the best, Don
