If I have an internal company web application is there any way that
the terminals using this application could have credit card readers
where the credit card information gets automatically updated on the
payment page of the application?

Obviously on the client side there is not a lot that can be done...
but possibly the credit card reader could send the information to the
server and cause the web application to refresh...

Any ideas?
 
You'd need a thick client to handle this.
That would require a program that you write (and the dot net framework) to
be installed on the client.
 
Actually because the credit card swiper sends data to the computer as if
it was a keyboard we believe we will be able to handle this by having
focus on a text box... swipping the card ...and on a javascript onchange
event we can parse the data into the payment form.

So it seems it can be done without going to the server
