Thanks Daniel,
My problem seems to stem from viewing the site based on searches from
Bing in my BB10 browser. The links provided are all HTTPS and the
browser claims "this website has HTTP Strict Transport Security
enabled". If you can verify that lua-users.org doesn't have that
enabled, (which you more or less have done already in your reply) then
I'll send a request to the bing site.
I'm not sure if this is even possible, but perhaps the site an
force/re-direct a connection to downgrade from https to http (like
forcing it up to https)?
