HI all.
 this might be slightly OT but I know that the list has quite a
 knowledgable crowd =) So here is my situation:
 
 I have a client who I have developed a site for in PHP it provides
 various models for shares forecasts, the way it works is that people
 register for free (with their credit card details-https) now if they
 are
 not satisfied after a month they must just unsubscribe. If they have
 not
 unsubscribed after the first month they become a customer and each
 month
 their credit card is charged the relevant amount depending on what
 they
 have subscribed for.
 
 
 Now our the complication is as follows: I know that storing client's
 credit card details online is a big NONO, so we would have to move the
 credit  card details offline when they register. Im not sure how to go
 about this. Whether to save the details in text files somewhere else
 on
 the server or save to text files not on the server but another
 location.
 
 
 Can anyone recommend/advise the best way to do this, also what type of
 encryption should I be using for the credit card info?
 
 thanks in advance.
 Angelo
