This works for me in Chrome, FF and IE. It is Twisted Web / Autobahn. Nothing in front.

Now, using 

openssl s_client -host crossbardemo.tavendo.de -port 443                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

spits out errors complaining about "self-signed" cert inside.

This might be because I not only included the StartSSL intermediate CA cert, but also their top-level CA cert (which is obviously self-signed).

Maybe this is wrong, and one should only include up to (but excluding) root CA cert ..
