Best way to get data from mysql/web to FilMake/internal

[baze22]

Let me preface by saying I am a FileMaker newbie.. :

We have an ecommerce web application written in PHP/MySQL. Our internal order processing is written in FileMaker. Right now orders are manually input into the processing from the web. We are trying to automate that.

He have played with secure ODBC and XML to accomplish this. What is the best way to do this securely, ie data encrypted at all times?

I appreciate any assistance you might offer.
