JSON Supported on secure HTTPS sources only #41

I have received an email from yourselves stating you are working on a way of supporting JSON datasource that will work from an HTTP source. Waiting for this with great enthusiasm as I have embedded devices that supply JSON data but do not support SSL.

I assume you mean when you load a freeboard at http://freeboard.io? Yeah it's really a browser issue, but one we have to find a way around. There are a couple of ways you can solve it in the meantime:

1) Use Chrome. It doesn't error out if you load an HTTP source from a page at a HTTPS endpoint. 2) Use an SSL proxy.
