Re: Card clearance, problems - solutions?

At that point I may as well be running the whole thing on NT >(webcat too), which is something I *don't* want to do.OK, common misconception: WebMerchant is *NOT* a CGI, nor does it depend in any way on a web server. It's just a plain ole program sitting there watching for order files to appear in a folder. It doesn't even have to be running on the machine where the order files are -- it just has to be able to 'see' the folder thru file sharing. Is that better?OTOH, running WebCat on an NT box is pretty nice (but I certainly wouldn't want you to switch if you didn't have to or want to). That's why we make versions for both platforms, so that everybody's happy!Grant Hulbert, V.P.
