Notes for ASP Form Kit

[24-March-2005]

This implementation of VSP Form requires the following software:

Windows NT4, 2000 or XP;
IIS4, 5 or 6, or Apache running ASP
Sufficient access rights to add a Directory to the web server running on your local machine; and
1Mb free hard disk space.

The folder asp-form-kit contains the files required to setup this kit.
Copy these files into an appropriate folder on your web server.
If required, setup a virtual directory under IIS which points to your installed folder.
Open the functions.asp file and set the appropriate values for these variables:
VendorName - should be set to your VSP Vendor Name as supplied by Protx
EncryptionPassword - should be set to your Encryption Password as supplied by Protx
MyServer - should be set to the fully qualified URL that identifies the virtual directory into which you installed this kit, then save the file before browsing to the correct URL. vspSite - the site to which you wish to send your transactions. You should start with the Simulator site.

Navigate to default.asp, as installed in the previous step, using your web browser.
Follow the on screen instructions to process a test transaction. If you are using the simulator site you will be taken through the full transaction process to debug your code.

This kit is intended as an example demonstrating how to process a simple VSP Form transaction through Protx.
Use this example to integrate Protx with your existing purchase order system.
You will need to modify this example to store and retrieve transactions using your database if required. Refer to the comments in the source code for further details.
Please note that you should also test the VSP Admin area when you are using the test server.
