I recently just installed a ssl cert and do i use https for the whole site or just for the checkout.php and cart.php and login.php files? whats the proper way to use https?
I have 2 more questions, when a customer purchases something, a finalized photo gets uploaded to our folders, now my questions are: what is the proper command to use when u want a php file to execute longer then 30 seconds for bigger photos and slower connection? how can i protect that folder from other people but still be able for a customer to see the picture he uploaded in his account with out stumbling on other peoples photos with out using a db to store the pictures? for example mysite.com/files/pictures/
} } Now that's the code i use now. What im trying to do is when a customer purchases a item, he uploads a photo. Now whats the proper way to handle the photo that will be used with a shopping cart system(btw i used _SESSION to store cart info)?
How long does the uploaded fie stay in the temp directory before i have to move it, because i was thinking it can stay there until the customer pays then it can be moved with the code above.
How do i make that photo private, so only the customer sees when he logs in his account to review the order. btw im using paypal as a payment system.
