A quick and dirty way is to pass a 'session.customerid' via your URL to the
SSL page. You lost your session vars when you crossed to the SSL server but
they are still over there waiting for you, if you only new the
session.customerid! :)
ie: https://mysecureserver.com/get-ccinfo.cfm?custid=#session.customerid#.
For that matter, pass the referenceid as well to get everything.

Subject: Session variables and Switching to Another Domain


Hello all:

I am facing a task to complete the checkout component of a little
e-store. I want to ask you guys for some advice.

The whole e-store application is ready now - shopping cart, products,
coupons, etc. Now I need to add the checkout part, which includes credit
card entering screen, final order confirmation and the actual processing
(CFX_PAYMENTNET & Verisign). The problem we have is that our e-store
resides on 1 server (www.server1.com), while we have another "secure"
server that hosts SSL and the Verisign payment components
(commerce.server1.com).

I store all of the user information - shopping cart, user parameters,
login information, etc. in session variables on www.server1.com.
However, during checkout when I send the user to the other domain,
commerce.server1.com, I will lose this session variables and all the
shopping cart and login information for the user. Can any of you guys
suggest a good solution to this problem?


Thanks in advance,
Dimo
