[PHP] Secure Connection
Hi, I am making a secure page where users will be able to send credit card information. What kind of support does php offer? Thanks Pushpinder Singh Garcha -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Secure Connection
This really has little to do with php. Use SSL for the connection (search on your favorite search engine). If you're asking about storage methods of the sensative information, www.php.net/crypt will answer that question. -js Pushpinder Singh Garcha wrote: Hi, I am making a secure page where users will be able to send credit card information.

[PHP] Secure connection with MySQL database
How can I protect my username and password for my connection with a mysql server. I can't place a file outside the root by the provider I use. Thankx -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Secure connection with MySQL database
Well, I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for but... if you name the file with a .php extension (instead of .txt or .inc) then your password is protected. For example, you have a password declared like this: $my_db_username = 'MyUserName'; $my_db_password = 'MyPassWord'; And it's inside a file named myfile.inc.php, then, even if somebody try to access the file using their browser like this: http://aaa.bbb.ccc/myfile.inc.php Nothing will appear... - E How can I protect my username and password for my connection with a mysql server.

Re: [PHP] Secure connection with MySQL database
True. But I think you missed the point of the original question--there's no "non-web directory"... - E To take it to another level, place the PHP file you are including in a non-web directory. That way, just in case the web server mucks up, there's no chance of PHP outputting the contents of the script, since the directory you place it in would not be readable by the web server. --- "Edwin @" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well, I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for but... if you name the file with a .php extension (instead of .txt or .inc) then your password is "protected".
