Bookkeeping module

[stagebrace]

I guess the first half of the second bullet is not necessary. Because the code will be available as a module.

Stagebrace,

I am not good at cracking software, so the best I could do is try to find some security information for you about writing in java. I understand that java is best secured by making the AGENT who receives transmission as specific as possible.

IBM has developed a much broader agent implementation they call aglets. Information can be found at www.trl.ibm.com/aglets, and the project has recently been released as open source (see www.aglets.org).

I found this information on a very good sight discussing how to go about writing a good POS software.

FYI ...

This may be very helpful... I have been looking for other java based open source POS projects that may have been started to integrated into zencart.

Apparently, there appears to be a good one that was started by a guy in 1995. The software was integrated into java as soon as it was good enough to incorporate. It has slowly been upgraded with technology over the years. You may want to check out these links. It would be a whole lot easier to merge 10 years of good work than start from scratch.

The interface also looks very nice.

Let me know what you think...

Reading from the database now.
Copy the folder "bookkeeping" into <your admin folder name>
example: www.somewhere.com/store/<your admin folder name>/bookkeeping
Then point your URL to the same as the example above and cycle through your customers using the form.

The current program requires you to have SSL at your domain. Not shared. This will get changed later.

Your comments please!

Java and JavaScript are not compatible.

The number system seems to work fine for selecting, but I do get an error shown bellow.
Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/beilana/public_html/cataloged/-----/bookkeeping/index.php on line

Am I supposed to give greater access to the file once ssl is in place? I imagine that the error is due to the fact that I can not sellect a customer because it is not seeing my database. Or is it?

Working on some SSL issues.
Please try again.

Update

• Forces SSL if its set to be used in configure.php
• Added "@" to all mysql functions. (don't understand what it does, but it fixed no connect issues)
• Makes the bookkeeping table `bk_expenses` if it has not been made already. (No SQL to upload by the user. The table may change soon to accept encrypted data)
• Shows some customer data for an order number.
• Saves order number as cookie (its the safest way to pass a JavaScript variable to a PHP variable)

Working on

1. Log in
2. browser and server based AES encryption based on Log in
3. Re add display for product sold for an order number
4. Re add form for expense per order (with add a row button)
5. Save expense form data after encryption.
