Right, well there's a few issues here. 1. You're asking if there's a way to parse a QXD file so retrieve the text from it. I doubt this can be done. I had a quick google for it, to no luck. I also bothered to open up a Quark 3.32 file in my text editor, to check out the source. It looks

Two problems for filesystem: 1. You cannot store over a tot number of images on some systems. Thus, storing them in DB will be headechless. Unless, you know that there will be at most some hundred pics or so. 2. Storing them in filesystem gives more trouble as you need to make sure it is -

You can do either, many people have responded and given their thoughs on the matter. I personally avoid storing images in a database, the filesystem is better equipped IMO to handle files. On top of the overhead of storing the image in your database you will be creating additional database

Sorry, OpenSSL is base in FreeBSD, so I didn't have to set it up myself. You can check www.openssl.org and www.apache.org. You still have to buy a cert though. For that, try: www.verisign.com and www.instantssl.com --- seems alot cheaper, no experience with them however But chances are your

That's a big question. The most secure way, using either mcrypt or PGP, is to have an application on the client's side that does the encryption and the decryptiong. This is probably the best solution. Heavily encrypt things on both sides, and this assumes the client side is secure. Barring
