Hello everyone, I've 2 questions, they are doozies too.
Client wants to sell his little online e-book for 5$/chapter, decided to go with PayPal beceause well, no funds to spend on things like verisign and so forth. (Yes I know about some of the horror stories of PayPal.) First, I don't think you're able to re-direct the user back to a "thank you" page after they've made the purchase. So this leads to a problem, I've got the e-book in question under a registration system, once you made the purchase, the registration is already complete and you can now login and read...that's the way I wish it was going to work but alas no. Here's what I've done. I've made an "instruction" screen that tells the user what to do. First go to paypal, then once you've paid, you can register and go on your merry way. As some of you may have already guessed this leads to a huge problem...trust! So the script I am looking for does the following: The user cannot click on link 2 until he clicks on link 1. Again that still leaves the question of trust but right now that's the best option I can come up with. I'm not too sure how I can track a user at a different website and make sure she/he's going through the PayPal site. Any feedback, ideas, ways to shoot myself in the foot would be appreciated. -------------------------------------- Mark Smeets / stranger0 / ICQ: 1062196 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.prowerks.com/stranger "Life is a series of small victories" - Gene Simmons FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
