The email attachment would have to be password protected, and encrypted for confidentiality purposes. It seems to me that there are lots of uncomfortable thoughts about the use of email combined with the word confidentiality. There's lots of evil things that can be done with aliases, and the like. The solution that comes to my mind is to store the data in a db, with restricted access to users own pay account, and producing a html or pdf paystub using ssl/https. Also some robust security checks are in order before implementation. Then the confidentiality falls on the employee when they choose to print it. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
