I created the token via Javascript where the billing can be controlled better and to prevent the mixed up of the billing such as incorrect statements or calculation. I use the billing lock file for that purpose. I found that it doesn't alway work that way when the browser is refreshed or submitted, so I customized the Javascript to make it work better. That solve my problem but I found that some browsers acted too soon or too late with it's use of Javascript coding to unlocking the file, so the billing lock doesn't get released. So, I decided to do it all in PHP so the browsers' issues can be removed. I haven't decided how to best make use of the token via PHP, so I'm wondering if anyone of you can come up with one that is better than what I can come up with.
Call me crazy... but what about just using a cookie / session mechanism for this? One browser, one cookie, your site. Heck they even generate tokens for you. :) -- Teach a man to fish...
