    I have a single product and if some one buy that I needs to be able to deliver him a text file. For each customer that buys my single product I needs to be able to allow him access to a text file from a pool of text files in a folder


    The text file that I am sending is unique but has nothing to do with the customer. And I will upload these text files to the folder (http/product1/xyz.txt)
    and this folder will be password protected

    Any suggestions or advice will be really appreciated. Thank you

    P.S you can think of this situation as follow, some one buy a product call "random text file for 9.99" and I need to send him a random text file access as a subscription. I will create these text files in a protected folder.

    The text file has a url to a valuable product.

    So do they get to choose say one file over another or do they pay and then receive a file chosen by the system at random?

    Sorry for the late reply.

    Users get a random file chosen by the system. Thanks.

    So why not just construct a 'Thank you for paying' page and include words such as 'click here to download your file'.

    This download link could then be constructed in the form of www.yoursite.com/download/textfileX.txt where the X in textfile is generated from a random number generator contained in web page?

    Sequence would then be - They Pay - Get thankyou page (random number generated say 125) - Link constructed as www.yoursite.com/download/textfile125.txt displayed as 'download here'
