ok say i have a mysql database containing information such as product price, name, quantity available etc. i make a shop which can access this database fine and does so using ssl. now i want to charge buyers for the products by credit card. are there any good companies that will allow me to send a product description to them, and if a user decides to buy the product they send something back to me so that i know they have paid?
i know some webhosts offer shopping baskets but i really need to make my own.
ive heard sugestions of services such as Authorize.net, Verisign, SurePay but i dont know how they would work.

i hope someone can take the time to reply.

many thanks

Tom

For SurePay:
http://surepay.sauen.com

SurePay requires you to create & send an XML document via an SSL channel.

I do not know how AuthorizeNet and Verisign function, since I have not been required to use them yet.
