We do not have a rant today, nor we do have a review. Today I am going to go over something that a lot of people ask me – how to create a very basic 2checkout processing script. I am going to say now that this guide is simply how to do the processing side of it, it will not cover anything like the database side of things so you can create something like automatic downloads – we may do that as another tutorial.
2checkout HTML Form.
The first thing we need to do is the HTML form for 2checkout. We are going to be using the single page checkout for 2checkout as I prefer that one. Replace sid value with your own and setup the bits below to what you want it to be called. If you want to add a second product to the checkout form, add things like c_name_2, c_price_2 etc. As stated either, I am not going into the database side of things in this tutorial but you can always use a programming language to prefill all in this and use cart_order_id as a method to know what order someone is ordering.

Even in the days of social networks, e-mail addresses have been the main method of people sending messages over the Internet as it works much like the common postage system that most countries has. I do not need to explain e-mails to you but much like an address, e-mails too can change and when they do, people can lose contact.
You might wonder why the hell I am even saying this or may simply not care but as you may know the original URL of Tweaked for your Pleasure used to run on a CJB.NET sub domain (snat.cjb.net) and I used to run my personal e-mails from that domain. Well the other day I was on the CJB.NET website and re-registered a sub-domain I used to "own" which still get loads of link back. Well after register the sub domain again, I decided to have a quick look at CJB.NET settings for snat.cjb.net to make sure the redirect to Snat.co.uk was still working.
Well after looking at it I discovered that snat.cjb.net MX records was still pointing to a mail server that I still had access too (thanks The Hosting for never actually deleting my mailing account even though you closed down, ran away and scammed your clients) and that the mail accounts was still alive. So I decide to load my former CJB.NET shell account and not setting up my e-mail account in Evolution Mail as CJB.NET shell still had all the passwords setup and I could not remember them for the life of me.
Either way, I loaded up my former mail client and after waiting a bit, I found I had around 2500 new e-mails with people wondering why I am no longer replying to e-mails and a lot of other e-mails from the likes of OpenDNS, GoDaddy and other places I never bothered changing my e-mail.
There is not really a point to this article other than if you change your e-mail, at least tell people about it because lately a lot of people have changed their e-mail whom I know and very few have actually bothered to tell me what it is so I could update my records and then wonder why they never get any e-mails.
On a side note I have seen more and more people spamming their URL in the website box and then slightly "followed" the topic at hand in the comments. I would recommend you to read this again before you do – Comment Guide Lines.
