ssl

[mcbaby]

I have searched ths site and I cant find anything about usng ssl. I am concerned about the checkout_payment.php.THis is where the client enters their credit card info, but the page is not seccure. Is this something that can be changed in oscommerce or do i need to contact my web host?
Thank You

When you set up osCommerce (using the install script) it asks you if you want to use SSL. That is where you tell it the correct path to SSL.

If you did not do this during the install, you can still do it later. Just edit the catalog/includes/configure.php file.

There are a couple of things to do:

Edit these lines

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://secure.yoursite.com');

Change this to point to your https serever.

 define('ENABLE_SSL', false);

Change this to true.

Now your page will be secure.

THanks, I did in the meantime contact my host and they gave me the url to do that. So between that and your response , I can do it now. This forum has been so helpful!
