Now the method I&rsquo;ve chosen mixes a lot of technologies; It also took me a few days of banging my head on the desk and running into numerous roadblocks, <strong>but</strong> I <em>think</em> I&rsquo;ve found the solution that I&rsquo;ve been after that is both functional and secure as well as low maintenance with minimal headaches.</p>
