Database and WeriSign Payment quandry

I have a somewhat simple form on a web page (.asp) that captures name,
credit card number, expiration date (and other info as necessary).

My problem is this...if I create the form and want the results sent to a
database--the confirmation page appears and I can't submit the credit card
information to VeriSign Payment Services as all the information is not on
the page.

If I submit the information to VeriSign, I lose all the information and
nothing goes into the database.

Anyone know how to work around this?

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Bill

You would have to forgo using the FP database component and write a custom ASP/VBScript to process
the form.

Have you considered a shopping cart application that support the VeriSign Payment Process?

Hi Bill,

You'll need an ASP | PHP | CGI page to handle the interface with Verisign. Take a look at http://www.candypress.com for a low cost
store that can help you do what you wish.

Are you using Verisign as a third party payment service? If so, why
would you even want to keep / be responsible for a database of credit
card numbers? Why not set things up so your clients interact with
Verisign themselves to make payment? I am not familiar with Verisign
payment services, but I do know that when using Paypal, it is easy to
put a link on your site that would let the client pay thru Paypal and
you get a notice of payment. I dont know if this makes sense for you or
not --

Thanks for all the help... I did find a work-a-round...
After the data was submitted...and placed in the database, I used the
confirmation page as another form...and they have to enter and in some cases
re-enter some of the information, and when that is submitted, it goes
directly to VeriSign for credit card processing..

Appreciate the quick and accurate responses!

Bill
