[FX.php List] PCI Compliance for FMS and OS X Server

I have never allowed a client to process credit cards on any FileMaker
powered site - or any site I've ever written actually.

I send them to a processing gateway that is PCI compliant, and simply see
if the payment was successful or not.

This approach may not work in all cases.

Cheers

Webko
