ssl webfonts

My site is working well with Google webfonts UNTIL the user hits the SSL portion of the site.

At that point, chrome throws the partial encoding error, and my cufon menu losses it's kerning.

I'm including my webfont with this css:

@font-face {
src: local('Lusitana'), url(https://themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/lusitana
/v1/tAIvAkRzqMJf8Y4fM1R7PXYhjbSpvc47ee6xR_80Hnw.woff) format('woff');
}

My js console then gives me this error:

[blocked] The page at https://domain.com/ecommerce.php ran insecure content from http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lusitana:regular,700&subset=latin.

Any ideas how I can get google fonts to force SSL?

Have you tried replacing https:// with // in the url? The request should use the correct protocol automatically.
