This is a question I posted to a support forum website that uses php/mysql 
software.  See the response from Ed
below.

How do you recommend doing this in itools7?

thanks,

citizen

QUESTION POST STARTS HERE

If I have a site at say 

http://www.mydomain.com/index.php 

Can I do the SSL part at the name server domain which has SSL 

https://www.ssldomain.com/mydomain

for example?

The idea being the nameserver has an SSL cert that many different domain names 
can use for the SSL part of the transaction. 

How can one string out the credit card capture to actually take place at a 
different domain name than the website domain name (ie mydomain.com)? 

What files need to stay and what files need to be moved? 

When you pull up the website "www.mydomain.com " does the URL header stay the 
same but only change to "https://www.ssldomain.com/mydomain"; 
at checkout? 

=====================================================================
RESPONSE from Ed Holtzman,

Exactly, its all on the regular URL until it gets to the checkout point where 
it asks for personal details, at which time it automatically 
switches to the HTTPS URL equivelents. 

The location on "https://www.ssldomain.com/mydomain"; is a virtual folder that 
points to the files/folders on the regular hosting. For example 
if I upload www.mydomain.com/newfile.htm , it is instantly and automatically 
available as https://www.ssldomain.com/mydomain/newfile.htm 

Here is how I have one site setup with a shared SSL through my host. My SSL 
adress is just a virtual folder on their secure server. My domain 
would be www.mydomain.com. My 'pathtossl' is set to 
https://www.ssldomain.com/mydomain.  No files had to be moved, after I was 
granted the shared 
SSL through my host, they gave me the secure URL to use and I just enter that. 
Works great.
