just make checkout secure

[rusty1001]

Hi

 

I just want to make checkout_shippinp.php and a few files secure, is there a way to do this without an SSL, a secure way? my host account has a secure area but not SSL, but it means moving all the site into a secure folder , and it will a strange link, is there a way doing this , if I just move the shipping files there and adjust the config files it does not work, thanks

I believe you can turn on SSL with the below code.

This is an example of SSL being turned on when someone clicks the

button for the "checkout_shipping.php" page in an osc store.

;-)

 

 

$breadcrumb->add(NAVBAR_TITLE_1, tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'));

 

 

The NAVBAR_TITLE1 = Button Image

The FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING = "checkout_shipping.php"

The problem you are going to have invoking a secure connection is this.. The file will in fact have a secure socket layer protection.. However 80% of your users browsers or better are going to pop up a message when the file is called stating that the page appears to be a secure socket layer but does not belong to you.. This is going to make it look like you are phishing to most users who are not educated about which are most and it will look that way for good reason because it happens out there. You will probably have a negative effect approaching it that way.. You would be best off at presenting a legit secure connection by purchasing a dedicated ip from your webhost ($15 at most) and assigning it to your domain.. Then buying a cheaper ssl cert like from Rapid SSL for about $65 for the year and installing it.. I know that is not the answer you are looking for but I have already traveled down that path..
