Ted,

Crazy is not good :-)

I did a little more thinking about your issue -- although I don't think I'm knowledgeable enough with WordPress and other solutions to give a great answer. Maybe others here have more experience with digital content.

Your main issue as I recall was being able to have rich content managed in Wordpress and then allowing for "snippets" to be shown on an eComm / OFBiz / BigFish site. This could be accomplished by using the content entities in OFBiz but that would mean you would have to store content in both Wordpress and OFB. Perhaps having a web-service that exposes the content from Wordpress be used at runtime to pull dynamic content into a Product Detail Page would work for you? The devil is always in the details with this sort of thing. At the end of day you have a Wordpress solution that's great for publishing, managing subscribers etc but no shopping cart. And you have OFBiz/BigFish that is great for eCommerce but not great for the publishing stuff. Using best-of-breed and seamlessly integrating between the two may just be challenging.

On the client-side certificate that's definitely above my pay grade ... again others may be able to help.

Hi Nick,

I have been going crazy since our last exchange.  I am curious as to
whether or not you have found any answers to my etext/Wordpress
question.

And I have another question.  I plan on experimenting with a new
method of fraud prevention, involving client side certificates, and
using JavaScript to have a user digitally sign and encrypt a sales
agreement using his or her private key, and send that back in an
extra, hidden field in the checkout form.  That the client signed it,
and not someone else, can then be confirmed using the usual methods in
PKI systems.  Do you have any thoughts on a) configuring OFBiz/BigFish
to support use of client side certificates when they're available, and
b) adding the JavaScript I require to the checkout form?  This
provides both non-repudiation for both parties to the transaction and
security, so the client can rest assured that the details of the
transaction will not be altered once he or she has accepted it: the
objective being to protect both the merchant and consumer from fraud.
How easy, or difficult would you say this is likely to be?

Thanks

Ted
