Hi, I'm a new member located in Melbourne, Australia. Done previous websites, but brand new to PHP & interactive websites.
I'm developing a site where the user can post an advert into a database, but I only want the advert uploaded if the user has paid for the advert via PayPal. Firstly, is this possible? I don't want to be bothered with all the financials - can I leave all that up to PayPal to accept their credit card details, and only when payment has gone through, can the advert be posted? If so, as I'm not handling credit cards, does my website need to be secure? Except for PayPal's standard transaction fees (2.4% + $0.30), are there any other ongoing expenses? Except for PHP & mySQL, do I need any extra features with my webhost? Finally, am I biting off too much? Thanks.
