Actually, what I need to know is what to do before the transaction takes
place, not after. I would like to capture all the information on one page
and pass it to authorize.net for processing. According to their
documentation, I need to be able to initialize a client side secure
connection before this entire process can happen securely.
I think it has to do with the fact that a client must establish a secure
connection with both my site and the authorize.net site in order for this to
take place. I can serve a secure form for the client to fill out with an
action pointing to authorize.net, but since the form originated from my
site, the connection to authorize.net would not be secure until after the
client had transmitted the information. If the client initiated the secure
connection before transmitting the data, then it would be secure all around.
Authorize.net documentation claims there are ways to initiate a client-side
secure connection, but I am not aware of one.
At least that is my understanding of it. This is my first time to use
authorize.net. I have done this using Verisign, but I have found their tools
to be rather limiting as well as pricey.
