Posted by Jeff on June 14, 2009, 12:26 am Please log in for more thread options I've been rewriting my shopping cart from perl to php and have been rethinking some approaches. This is pretty straightforward if everyone has their own SSL cert, but if you are sharing an SSL cert that is good for one domain only, there's some hoops you have to jump through as far as moving all the images and stylesheets over to the secure domain, and that means you have to rewrite the template for the secure paths and maintain the same stuff in two different places. Now, I wonder if there isn't an easier/better way. Perhaps with either .htaccess or tinkering with the httpd.conf. I can do whatever I wish with the server. Any thoughts?

I do not have any sites with an SSL certification so I may be totally off-base (not for the first time). -- TK http://wejuggle2.com/ Still Having a Ball Similar Threads Posted Sharing Access to Domain Name Record June 30, 2009, 4:11 am best way of chatting and sharing?
