Opening a secure web page from oracle forms for credit card validation

the_wing_riderJul 8 2011 — edited Jul 11 2011
Hi All,
I searched for the topic in the forms forum but couldn't find a solution.

Requirement: As per some compliance, our application cannot do a credit card validation from our forms application, instead we need to use a java code which a third party will provide ,it's an iframe (they say, i am layman when it comes to Java, don't know what is it), but they say that, within your forms application you call our iframe do the credit card validation over there get a token of response back from us and use this token as a confirmation in your application.

Problem: I could not find a solution anywhere wherein i can call a web page from forms. Now, this web page should be modal, i.e. unless i close this page i cannot access my forms application. Please guide me if anyone has done that.

Secondly if i could make it work, how will i communicate with this external web page, like getting back some token value and use it back in my forms application. I am completely clueless.

As we are using Oracle designer for generating forms, we cannot use a bean type thing as designer does not have the bean-item type defined!

Appreciate if anyone could provide me pointers for a solution to this problem statement.

We are on forms 9i -- Version 9.0.2.11.0
