This module is an updated version of the Protx Direct module for osCommerce (last version was v4.4). The most important feature of this version is a major improvement in the customer experience of the payment process. This version uses the open source jQuery and Thickbox packages to bring a "Web 2.0" AJAX interface to the payment process, with a noticeable improvement particularly with the 3D-Secure phase of the process.
The module has been carefully developed to retain compatibility with JavaScript disabled in the customer's browser, albeit with a more clunky interface.

Changes since v4.4

• Catalog Side:
  • Card payment fields moved from checkout_payment.php to checkout_confirmation.php for increased security
  • Start date and issue number fields hidden unless Maestro or Solo card types are selected
  • CVV help popup now in a "ThickBox" window
  • Upon clicking "Confirm" a "ThickBox" window appears in a new layer overlying checkout_confirmation.php. The remainder of the payment process including the 3D-Secure (Verified By Visa / MasterCard SecureCode) takes place in this layer
  • Checks for a successful transaction before allowing the order to be recorded - thus securing against the publicised payment hack
  • Minor bug fixes (error with complex database names; not showing error messages due to & instead of & in URL

• Admin Side:
  • Variable amount for RELEASEing DEFERRED transactions
  • Check live transaction status (e.g. settlement status, batch id etc)

• SSL Cert (shared or dedicated)
