Hello All!
Let me tell you what I am trying to set up and about the way I am thinking
of doing this. Maybe someone has a product or a script that does something
similar or can tell me how to accomplish my idea.
I am trying to run a page on my shopping web site that has the ability to
give the customers status of their order. I do not know how to accomplish
this yet all I know is that the idea I stole from dell. The way you can log
in to their site and be able to see where in the process the system is.
Basically a uniqe page customised by each user.
I was thinking of two ways to accomplish this.
1. Find some way that a web page inside zope can be redirected to another
web page based on the user ID. This would be the simplest way since I can
then provide dynamic information pulling on different dtml methods and
database queries (leaving the authentication to zope).
2. Create the whole thing via queries and serv it up via zope. This would be
a royal pain since I would have to recreate the whole authentication part in
the database and can not use zope authentication for this.
So if you have any ideas I would love to hear them.
