I am writing a content management section for a site that will use as part
of the front page three small sub-sections from another site's home page
(with their permission, of course).
They are worried about giving us the password to their database, where the
information is stored, because we are on a different server and they are
afraid someone could steal the password since it's being passed
un-encrypted by our web server when we try to retrieve the info.
Is this something to worry about? Is there a way around this? They
suggested using IFrames to display the static information from their page,
but this doesn't work with Netscape - at least version 4.7.
Any other ideas?
TIA,
-Lisi
