Hi
One of my clients has several webstores, and they have requested an application which would keep track of the shipping for each order from each site.
So basically, whenever an order is placed on any site, the shipment will have to be created on this central site.
My first question is what would be the best way to enter these shipments
From testing, it seems that when including a foreign script, I dont have access to its functions, nor can it access the same session variables. So the only option I see left is to call a script passing in values in the url with a call to file_get_contents('http://foreignserver.com/script.php?shipment=info.....etc)
Would there be a better way to do this?
Also, since the stores are going to need to tell the shipping app which manufacturers are going to be shipping the items, the manufacturers tables in the shipping app is going to have to be syncronized with each store.
How would I do this using mySQL?
Thanks for any help
