My general rule of thumb: "Never ever handle credit card details. Ever. Pass the customer off to a third party that does it as their primary service. (Paypal, etc.)" Possible exception: If you are working for a huge corporation with deep pockets and high dollar lawyers, for when the credit card info gets compromised. If you must handle credit card info, never ever store it anywhere. JM -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
