You are not clear which part of the credit card processing you are talking about? To take cc info from a customer: Just run your cgi script on a secure server, ie https not http. https://somehost.com/my.cgi To connect to a bank's verification service: use LWP which handles ssl. The best way to do this, is setup a simple html form which can connect to your service's test server. Get some test transactions going thru html, and then take the html_form_fields and plug them into LWP like shown below. $card_no= &z($card_no); #decrypt card number, encrypted on hard drive my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new(timeout=>45); my $req = POST 'https://zentara.zentara.net/~zentara/cgi-bin/store/respgen.pl', [IOC_merchant_id => '4301330018817403', IOC_order_total_amount => "$grand_total", IOC_merchant_shopper_id => 'susehost', # IOC_merchant_order_id => "$order_id", IOC_merchant_order_id => "$unique_id", ecom_billto_postal_street_line1 => "$street1", ecom_billto_postal_postalcode => "$zip", ecom_billto_postal_countrycode => "$country", ecom_billto_online_email => "$email", ecom_payment_card_name => "$first $last", ecom_payment_card_number => "$card_no", ecom_payment_card_expdate_month => "$exp_mon", ecom_payment_card_expdate_year => "$exp_yr", url => 'https://192.168.0.1/~zentara/cgi-bin/shop/boacc.pl', ]; The url is the url that you want the results returned to, typically it will be true or false and maybe a reason or error code. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
