Hello all:
Hope this is the correct place to pose a question or three.
A customer would like me to copy their website onto a CD ROM for
distribution to their clients. However there are a couple of design
requests which I don't think can be done. Perhaps there are readers on our
mail list which would know the answers.
1. On their website I use Cold Fusion and password protect some areas which
are for "salesmen only"--to view the current proprietary information of the
Company's products. They would want this area to continue to be protected.
I don't see how--as anyone could use a simple explorer window to view the
information.
2. This then poses the question, could we "encrypt" the CD ROM so it could
only be viewed by a browser but--without great trouble--the other areas
would be unviewable.
3. They would also like the CD ROM to expire/time out after six months with
a "message" explaining they should contact the Company for a new version.
I am pretty sure the answer to all three questions is NO. However I would
like confirmation from others on this list.
Thanks for taking the time to read my questions.
Daryl
