Comment(by pnettle):

 Just starting doing some dev stuff with wordpress so please put up with
 what might be stupidity, but it seems to me this is being caused by the
 fact that wordpress is building the url's for everything in theme.php
 based off of get_option('siteurl'), which stores the url as http://url.

 A simple solution would be to check to see if the current url is using
 https, and if so replace the http:// from get_option('siteurl') with
 https:// in the theme.php where it generates the url. However, wouldn't it
 be better to have a more global function for this rather than simply
 putting it solely in the theme.php file? Because shouldn't most places
 that generate a url be using the https if it is what is currently being
 used?
