Re: security while building online store

Hi, most probably, things like XSS (Cross-Site-Scripting) and SQL-Injections might lead to a successfull hacking-attempt. If you try to write your own online store, make sure that you do NOT use register_globals! Try to google for XSS and SQL-Injections, there might be plenty of information on the web.

Hi, I was checking on several php/mysql based on line store, free and commercial, but didn't find any that fits the best for us. Looks like, it would be the best to develop one. To make a online store that works fine - it shouldn't be such a big problem. To make a SECURE ad SAFE online store - that's the tough one form me. Before I even start building the store, can somebody point usual "traps" and problems, and security problems that usually happen, some advices, any advices? Thanks for any help! -afan
