Email_Receipt.Php

[Michael vdP]

Hi Larry,

 

Thanks for this book! This is one of the few books (well, the only one I know) that covers in depth the set-up of a secure e-commerce website. I have learned so much from it already.

 

In chapter 10, the 'email_receipt.php' isn't really explained. I was glad to find it among the downloadable code, and the idea of being able to send a HTML email appeals to me as a lot of people will see it as more professional. I am not familiar with Zend (yet) and what I learn from a few 'googles', convinces me, it is software that I would like to use.

 

I can figure out most of the script with the exception of line 67:

 

set_include_path('./library/');

 

To what 'library' is it referring? There is an empty 'library' folder with your code for the Coffee site. What am I missing?

 

Many thanks in advance!

This is the path to the Zend Library.

 

The framework i think has a library folder called `library` and this is the path your setting to call the zend folder (which is inside the library folder).

 

I think you possibly haven't seen the E-commerce extras, whcih are PDF's explaining to download the zend library.

 

Let me know, and i'll try take it from there for you

This is the link to the PDF which explains it all - it's pretty straight forward, but if you have any problems or anything else I'm sure someone (if not me) will be available to help you

Hi Jonathon,

 

Thanks for the link because frankly I had a hard time finding that PDF. Yes, it has exactly the information that I need. Installing Zend Framework shouldn't be a problem.

 

Keep up the good work, guys!
