Wanted: Script for selling RL Products

I'm in need of a script that will ask an avatar their personal RL details (size, name, address, zipcode, city, state and country) after he/she payed an object. All the details provided would than be emailed to me so I can send his / her order out.

Obviously when the customer provides the details it must not show up in local chat.

Is this possible? If you can script this for me let me know how much you'd charge (L$). I need the script to be mod and copy.

To do something like this I believe you may need to run an external database hosted like a web server.

A scripter will need to write code to communicate between scripts inworld and the external database. From there you can do what you will with the data.

If DIY: There are a couple of items on SLX which contain all the needed scripts for inworld and the database server and are full perms. It's a PHP and MySQL tutorial item. (also posted in new product s here recently, I just got one.)

I would have a proper website with all this because you want to keep the data and it's got nothing to do with SL, it's just redirecting customers.

Good luck.

I don't see the purpose of selling Real Stuff on Second Life this way...I mean you could directly have a simple script that points you to an url and there the user can enter all the data...much simpler than doing it in Second Life using chat.

If you need someone to do the PHP coding I can do it.

Moin Negotium,



there are two alternatives:
simpler:
- the vendor gives a notecard on touch.
- the user fills this notecard and drops it into a box.
- the user pays.
- the vendor sends an http request to a webserver to store payment and dilivery info.

better:
- the vendor gives an URL of an html form.
- the html form sends an xml-rpc request back to the vendor
- the user pays
- the vendor sends an http request to a webserver to store payment and dilivery info.



yes its possible, if you already own a root webserver and it would be open source, as half of the system would run on your server. So the price would be about real life web server scripts. And not trivial ones, as the better version requires xml rpc. You either need to trust the scripter to admin your root server as root, or need to know enough about linux to install a script there. I would guess this could be done within a week, if all partys are on same timezone and hold close contact to discuss while implementing. Its more likely one or more month, if I recall several SL/RL projects.
