Comment(by dcf):

 Replying to [comment:14 saint]:
 > Facebook will be forcing all apps to goÂhttps://Âin October 2013, so at
 most we have six months of realistic bridge generation via facebook apps.
 There are some options to get around that, such as popping the games out
 of facebook's frame (either automatically or via a "Click to Play" button
 that launches a popup). ÂOnce the switch to https is made, I could also
 set the iframe to enforce http, and just let people deal with mixed-
 content errors.

 I was surprised, but setting the iframe to http seems to work. You get
 mixed-content warnings, but if the nesting goes like this,
 {{{
 https enclosing page
   http flash proxy embed.html
     ws non-secure WebSocket
 }}}
 the browser seems to make the WebSocket connection. It definitely doesn't
 work if the `embed.html` is itself served over https.
