I want to pass [cart] to verisign as [user1] then on the return, past [user1] back into [cart]? Can I set the value of [cart] or is it always generated randomly?I'm going to want some information out of the cart, such as customer name, address, and email, plus info on the product that they bought. Can I get to that info without having a [cart] value? Or will I need to park it in a different database then get it back based on the cart-based variable I get back from Verisign?Now that I think about what I just wrote, I guess those are two different ways of accomplishing the same results, aren't they?I'm still curious about whether I can put a value into [cart], though... > Only thing that may be a problem (I dont' know how well I appreciate your > situation) is that users can manipulate the URL both going and coming...

I assume that could be used to get around that very problem (though I'm not exactly sure what a Silent POST is). The vague description I read as I skimmed their docs seemed to indicate that it would work that way.Thanks!Steve------------------------------------------------ Steven Jarvis Web Developer sjarvis@nwaonline.netMorning News of Northwest Arkansas http://www.nwaonline.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
