texte = Hi all This is a response to a year old thread about using md5 with Authorize.Net but as I just had to tackle this for a project I thought I would post my solution for the archives... We are implementing a "tradedoubler"
deal for a client. On your shopping site receipt page you need to send back to tradedoubler a bunch of variables which include an md5 string (which they call checksum). This is made up of 'a code they send you' + 'the total price' + 'the cart/order number' On OS X md5 is installed by default so typing... md5 -s yourcodehere in the terminal gives you a result like... MD5 ("yourcodehere") = 0c6de308f5776288c6428c78ddae3bd5 (with a hidden LineFeed at the end) So using our required variables in place of 'yourcodehere' and with a bit of webDNA to tidy it all up... [text]checksum=[middle startafter== &endbefore=%0A][shell]/sbin/md5 -s [secretcode][cart][price][/shell][/middle][/text] .... gives you your md5 [checksum] I assume this works for any platform that supports [shell] (and had md5 installed of course) The only 'catch' was I had to add www to the sudoers file in OS X to allow webDNA to use this shell command Paul ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
