(posting again because it looks like the first one didn't go through)

Hi,

I've sniffed around on Google and PHPBuilder, but I can't seem to find any
information on creatnig encrypted pages with PHP.

Here is what I am looking for. I have a client who owns a retail store.
Thus, he has a manual credit card swiper. He would like to have orders from
his website listed on a special page with the customer's name, credit card
number, etc. where he can go once a day and process the orders manually. I
explained that he could also have the customer data sent in an encrypted
email, and he is fine with that.

Anyway, I'm looking for some solution that creates an encrypted page,
passworded, where I can make sure that the information is not being passed
down the wire in plain-text. I can't seem to find a good tutorial explaining
exactly what I would need to create this. Will I need to buy a
Thawte/Verisign ID just for this? (That seems unreasonable, as he would be
the only one accessing the page.) How would I go about setting this up?

I run my own server, so I can install programs to do this. Currently I'm
running on a Cobalt RaQ (http://www.cobalt.com). Any links regarding setting
this sort of site up would be helpful.

Thanks,
Erica

P.S. After my experience, I'd be happy to create a tutorial regarding this
if there isn't one already. Assuming I complete this successfully, I will
post the results back to this list.
