Normally, any text (such as your credit card number) sent from your browser to the web server is sent as plain text. This means that a hacker could potentially intercept (however unlikely) the information sent from your browser and read it. Therefore, by using the secure server, the information is encrypted before it is sent from your browser. It would be practically impossible for anyone to decrypt it without knowing the key. The following example uses your domain as the name of your domain and any page as the name of the order form or the page you wish to be secure. Use the following url to call your pages via the
secure server. If you do not know which server # your domain is on, please contact support. The above page would be accessed from the normal web server as: http://yourdomain.com/anypage.html *SPECIAL NOTE FOR FORMMAIL WITH THE SECURE SERVER* You will not be able to use the system formmail
script with the secure server. You will need to install formmail in your cgi bin to use
with the secure server. The frommail script and installation instructions can be
downloaded here: If you are calling the formmail through the secure server, your action line and other code will look like the following: <FORM METHOD=POST NOTE: do not put the .com, .net, etc. extension after yourdomain. The last two lines allow a link back to your main page - thus they get a report of what they ordered and a link. It's important that you call your order page through a secure URL (HTTPS) in order for it to work properly Example: If you do not know which server # your domain is on, please contact support. Please
contact the Webmaster
for broken links information on this site. |
