| Would like to integrate Snitz with an ASP-based shopping cart application which has its own log-in module. Want to set up 'single sign-on' solution so that users need only log-in once and the user's data is passed through to the forum and to the shopping cart (not necessarily at the same same). I know how to protect ASP pages so that users need to be logged in (with an inc_page code) but how would both apps know that any one user is one and the same? |

| Did you try use Search for "shopping cart" - I think StephenD did something like what you are asking for. |

| Thanks Roger. Searched for 'shopping cart' and 'universal login'. I also want to integrate Snitz with VP-ASP. I don't know if the Universal Login mod will do what I want. Obviously, both apps need to link to the same back-end database. Any ideas from anybody else? |

No easy task, no easy answers... My favorite method for integration, usable with SQL Server, would be to create views to provide each application with its own "favorite" tables, thus minimizing any code changes. Views have the problem of being updateable only through instead of triggers, but it's definitely a clean solution.
If you're not on SQL Server, it will be a little harder to code. You need to make the call of whether you will maintain the different tables, while creating code to synchronize additions, deletions and editions, or whether you want to change each app's code to deal with a single table. No easy choice... |
