Hi I need to code some solutions into my ASP.net based website which I am designing on MS Visual Studio 2005.
Note, the website will not go live.
Basically the website is similar to a game download/purchase site such as www.direct2drive.com
So I need the following:
1) User ID/Password for client login
I have done this and am using a file called web.config to store the password/usernames.
I was wondering how I would setup a database on the site consisting of the users details such as address. It would have to be accessible by the user, ie some kind of account management system.
2) Purchase and payment system. I will have games stored on the website.
I was thinking of having a paypal link where users would pay to a paypal account and obtain the information (ie gamename and price) from the actual site.
Once this is done then I will have to send a email to them giving them a username and a password so they could download the game. This user/pass would expire in 24 hours.
This does sound clumsy, however again I have no clue how to implement this. How would I password protect the directories?
3) Download of the games. I need some kind of system to download the games.
The thing is I am required to show that the system is capable of downloading media from a server. Would this be a simple case of just gettin the password/user and then downloading from that secure directory?
There are more things I must do, however these are the three most important.
