Branding/Skinning approaches

Hi all,

Just trying to decide how to best approach "skinning" on an app for wholesale resellers of our services. Our primary caveat that needs to be taken into account is that we use SSL https pages primarily throughout the app.

I am thinking that the fastest approach is to create a direct action with a reseller param for the main entry point of the app and push the associated skin object into the Session. Basically I would be abandoning any hope of using sessionless pages then of which I only have a few for the prevention of sessions for non-logged in users. Then I can just use "cloaking" (frame the whole page) on the reseller's domain name to hide my URL.

The probably better longer term approach is to get an SSL certificate that is tied to my IP address instead of my domain name so that all the reseller domain names point to my IP and I just use the incoming request host name to determine which skin (basically CSS and page brand banner) to use.

Any inputs on what has worked best or gotchas?

Regards, Kieran
