jloyzaga Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 1. An partner site client will click through to a partner(osc) site from the "mother" site 2. The "Identification Code" (partnerid in the following) will be passed via an HTTP query string using name value pairs. The URL may be determined by the partner eg. http://www.exampleonly.com.au?partnerid=C00000123456 http://www.exampleonly.com.au?processinput...id=M00000123456 The partnerid 12 character field contains two field values: Position Definition Range of Values 1 partner flag representing shoppers I (Independent Business Owner) business type M (Member) C (Client) 2-12 partner ID number. 11 digits with 00000000001-99999999999 leading zeroes The first field may be required by the partner store in future tailoring of their applications. Both fields are required to be reported to "mother" with individual sales data. The partner site owner needs to ensure the client is returned to the "mother" site on completion of the transaction How do you think I can do this? Is there a contrib that I can butcher(modify) that will help? How do I return to "mother" site on completion of transaction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 I sit in front of this computer for hours.... I am very fortunate as I don't generally suffer from eyestrain.... however, I do not appreciate (and I don't think you will find many that do) some fool who thinks it necessary to post to the forum using big bold red letters.......huh??

jloyzaga Posted February 6, 2003 Author Share Posted February 6, 2003 I don't appreciate being called a fool. Nor do many people in this forum. My mistake for thinking I could post a question in this forum and expect that I would get a reply to my question that would solve the problem I have. I ask again, does anyone have an answer to the questions I posed? Did not mean to shout, didn't expect anyone would be so precious as to take offence and continue to abuse these forums for their petty point making. Perhaps this is where a moderator should step in? As a MORE (that was no shout that was a raised voice) senior member of this forum, and someone who has been in IT for 22 years and has managed over 25 people, I would sack someone who came to me when I asked for help and took up my valuable time with a comment like that. Lets get serious here...... Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireball Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 i don't really see your problem there ... you just add the code to any link out to your partner site ... or did i understand soemthing wrong ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jloyzaga Posted February 6, 2003 Author Share Posted February 6, 2003 I am the partner site and they are supplying it to me and I want to capture it into a table within OSC (didn't shout there either) - dont know how to grab it - I know its simple but my brain is more simple and I can't get my head around it. Maybe its too obvious - how do I get the query string into a table? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireball Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 it really is :) query string is available as variable in php .... just use phpMyAdmin to create a new table for that stuff, and check the variable on the page they will link to. if it is set then enter the value in the database .. plain simple if you don't want to do any further tracking ...

Guest Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 OK... I apologise.... I do not think you a fool (was a generic comment).... and will accept whatever description you have given for yourself... other than the "MORE".... whatever that is supposed to mean.... if you think you have been around longer, you are mistaken... but who really cares? I have no problem at all with you posting to the forum.... but you did hurt my eyes and i do get a bit testy when in pain....

mattice Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Perhaps this is where a moderator should step in? Are you sure? You asked for it... As a MORE (that was no shout that was a raised voice) senior member of this forum, and someone who has been in IT for 22 years and has managed over 25 people, I would sack someone who came to me when I asked for help and took up my valuable time with a comment like that. As a MORE moderator kinda guy that 'manages' over 4700 users here I assume someone that has been in IT for 22 years knows what big bold red letters mean... I wouldn't call it raising your voice.. and I also assume that person should understand if he's not willing to "let people take up his valuable time" he can not expect volunteers to spend their valuable time at people that scream very loud. And as a final comment I'd like to state that any boss that needs to threaten to sack you to get his point across is not worth working for IMHO... Other then that you're most welcome to ask questions. You can even post them in big red bold letters but I do think you'll get a reply similar to that of Johnson once or twice ;) Mattice "Politics is the art of preventing people from taking part in affairs which properly concern them" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jloyzaga Posted February 6, 2003 Author Share Posted February 6, 2003 Thanks Fireball - I knew it had to be simple - geez thats so obvious - http_get_vars. I appreciate the friendly and knowledgeable way you helped me. I was at a point where I knew it was simple but frustrated that I couldn't work it out in the timeframe I had. I guess I reflected that in my request. I appreciate that you could get past that and give me the help I needed. All of us are more than willing to that for others if its within our area of expertise, whether it be newbie or foundation member. Thanks again Fireball, you've maintained your integrity, I on the other hand didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
