SSL or Not SSL

greenspun.com : LUSENET : S-Mart Shopping Cart : One Thread

Basically, my provider gives us two different cgi-bin directories. One which is regular, the other a https:// directory which is secured.

My question, If I have the "add this item" webpages going to the regular cgi-bin directory and the "Buy items" going to the SSL directory, is the latter going to come up blank?

Should I just utilize the SSL cgi-bin directory for all the pag

You have to put the whole program in the SSL directory. This is because all the temporally and confirmed order information will be stored at the ORDER and TEMP sub-directory where the "add this item" directory is located.

God bless!
