need a foreach

[zang8027]

I am a little confused here. I have a cart that submits items to paypal, then paypal sends back a serialized URL to my page with the information.

 

So if i use $_GET['item_name1'], it gives me what ever item one is. If i change it to item_name2, if there is a 2, it gives me that name. Same with quantity.

 

Now, i need a way to say, get ALL the params that are sent back, (its in a array thats serialized so i would need $key => $value) but I am not quite sure on how to do this.

 

Here is the code that paypal generated for me..

 

<?php
.......

// parse the data
$lines = explode("\n", $res);
$keyarray = array();
if (strcmp ($lines[0], "SUCCESS") == 0) {
for ($i=1; $i<count($lines);$i++){
list($key,$val) = explode("=", $lines[$i]);
$keyarray[urldecode($key)] = urldecode($val);
}
// check the payment_status is Completed
// check that txn_id has not been previously processed
// check that receiver_email is your Primary PayPal email
// check that payment_amount/payment_currency are correct
// process payment

$itemname2 = $keyarray['item_name2'];
$amount = $keyarray['mc_gross'];
$quantity2 = $keyarray['quantity2'];

echo ("<p><h3>Thank you for your purchase!</h3></p>");

echo ("<b>Payment Details</b><br>\n");
echo ("<li>Name: $userSession</li>\n");
echo ("<li>Item: $itemname2</li>\n");
echo ("<li>Amount: $amount</li>\n");
echo ("<li>quantity: $quantity2</li>\n");
echo ("<li>Restaurant: $restaurantSession</li>\n");
}
else if (strcmp ($lines[0], "FAIL") == 0) {
// log for manual investigation
}

}

fclose ($fp);

?>

 

 

 

Now, pretty much, how can i use a for each to grab each value thats being sent back for quantity and item name.

 

i want my page to print out:

 

Pep. pizza (item1)  1(quantity1)

cheese pizza (item2)  4(quantity2)

 

 

does not need to be formatted, just echo'd

how would i use a foreach to get post or get values? maybe thats simpler

[premiso]

foreach ($_POST as $key => $val) {
    echo $key . " => " . $val . "<br />";
}

[zang8027]

ok thank you.. that got me somewhere.. but not what i need..  any ideas how i can just pull out item_name_(however many) and quantity?

 

 

im getting EVERYTHING thats posted back.. is there like a php command kind of like the mySQL command "LIKE" that i can just pull out item names haha

[sasa]

can you post example of data that you want to parse

[zang8027]

here is what i get when i just pull everything from the url (which is encoded in an array)

 

mc_gross = 56.24

protection_eligibility = Eligible

address_status = confirmed

item_number1 =

tax = 0.00

item_number2 =

payer_id = H6RLXPBW3ZDW6

item_number3 =

address_street = 1 Main St

payment_date = 13:16:18 Feb 19, 2009 PST

payment_status = Completed

charset = windows-1252

address_zip = 95131

mc_shipping = 5.44

mc_handling = 0.00

first_name = Test

mc_fee = 1.93

address_country_code = US

address_name = Test User

custom = 3

payer_status = verified

business = sss_1233964440_biz@zoominternet.net

address_country = United States

num_cart_items = 3

mc_handling1 = 0.00

mc_handling2 = 0.00

mc_handling3 = 0.00

address_city = San Jose

payer_email = bbb_1233964418_per@zoominternet.net

mc_shipping1 = 5.44

mc_shipping2 = 0.00

mc_shipping3 = 0.00

txn_id = 9M838033K29070309

payment_type = instant

last_name = User

address_state = CA

item_name1 = Medium Sausage Pizza

receiver_email = sss_1233964440_biz@zoominternet.net

item_name2 = Medium Ham and Pinnapple Pizza

payment_fee = 1.93

item_name3 = Medium Ham and Cheddar Pizza

quantity1 = 1

quantity2 = 2

receiver_id = THLEVDLL2GVXE

quantity3 = 5

txn_type = cart

mc_gross_1 = 11.79

mc_currency = USD

mc_gross_2 = 12.70

mc_gross_3 = 31.75

residence_country = US

transaction_subject = 3

payment_gross = 56.24

 

 

i want this:

 

item_name1 = Medium Sausage Pizza

item_name2 = Medium Ham and Pinnapple Pizza

item_name3 = Medium Ham and Cheddar Pizza

 

Same with quantity because i am sending this via fax or email and I dont really want EVERYTHING sent.. unless i have too

What is the "actual" string that get's returned? And can you convert it to an array on your own? Show us the raw text, at least the item portion of the raw text that is returned.

i cant figure out how to get all the results into a variable.. i tried putting the

 

foreach ($_POST as $key => $val) {

  return $key . " => " . $val . "<br />";

}

 

 

into a function and putting $test = "".postResults()."": but that only returns the first value (mc_gross).

 

 

 

 

[zang8027]

it works,i just need to figure out how to put the results (that entire list) into a variable

[samshel]

you already have the information in the array and u just need to find the items ?

 

or

 

you want to put the information in an array and find the items ?

[zang8027]

well, its probably easier to put the items into the variable like in sasa's $test variable. I am echoing out each of these "$GET" params using a foreach($arraykey as $key=>$val). Thats how I got that entire list to echo onto my page. I need to place that in a variable just like in sasa's example.

[samshel]

function returnString() {
   $str = "";
   foreach ($_POST as $key => $val) {
   $str .= $key . " = " . $val . "\n";
   }
   return $str;
}

echo returnString();

thanks, it works.. tho i had that return function before and it didn't work haha    maybe cause i didnt first declare it as an empty var

even though u were running foreach loop, you were returning inside the loop, so the return was executed first time your loop ran, u just had to put the return outside the foreach.
