ok this completely works, but the only problem i have is im a freak on security and in firefox there is a addon called TamperData and when the script automatically reffers me to login to paypal and take the payment TamperData pops up and lets you change the ammount that you have to pay and when you change the ammount it still counts as you have paid how do i stop this :S ?

create different items in PayPal, and have it so they are "buying" that "item".  Just go to your pappal account, then go to "Merchant Services", then go to "buy now button".  It will allow you to generate a static item (that the user cannot change).

 

agreed but i cant have a but it now button :S, im making a paid membership system and i need to make it auto refferal after signing up.

What class are you using?

 

It looks like you need to check the amount once you've received a success response and act accordingly.

 

Something like this:

 

<?php
    switch($_GET['action']) {
        case 'success':
            if($_POST['mc_gross'] == 1.99) {
                // Correct payment received...
            }
            else {
                // Incorrect payment received...
            }
        break;
    }
?>

 

Cheers

Chris

are you using IPN (Instant Payment Notification)?

 

if you are, have the amount that is ultimately entered in PayPal, posted back to your server and tracked in a table (in a db) .. then, you can set a CRON job to purge any payments that look fishy.

IPN is easy, just requires a freely available script and passing the location of that script in your form vars or in the button setup.

 

You will then have a record of who's paid and how much they paid.

 

I'm pretty sure it's possible to generate a button for a fixed value that doesn't allow tampering. You would have to set the amount when generating the button though.

 

I haven't the SOAP setup but I suspect it will probably be more difficult than the IPN setup.

-Find the script (I googled "paypal ipn script php" and got tons of results. Plenty of tutorials in there too but googling "paypal ipn tutorial php" will probably get you even better results)

-Read the instructions that come with the script.

-Try to setup the script

 

If you get stuck post back here with details of where you're stuck and we'll try to help.

*                  under the terms of the GNU General Public License.  See the
*                  included license.txt file.
*      
*******************************************************************************
*  VERION HISTORY:
*      v1.3.0 [10.10.2005] - Fixed it so that single quotes are handled the 
*                            right way rather than simple stripping them.  This
*                            was needed because the user could still put in
*                            quotes.
*  
*      v1.2.1 [06.05.2005] - Fixed typo from previous fix 
*
*      v1.2.0 [05.31.2005] - Added the optional ability to remove all quotes
*                            from the paypal posts.  The IPN will come back
*                            invalid sometimes when quotes are used in certian
*                            fields.
*
*      v1.1.0 [05.15.2005] - Revised the form output in the submit_paypal_post
*                            method to allow non-javascript capable browsers
*                            to provide a means of manual form submission.
*
*      v1.0.0 [04.16.2005] - Initial Version
*
*******************************************************************************
*  DESCRIPTION:
*
*      NOTE: See www.micahcarrick.com for the most recent version of this class
*            along with any applicable sample files and other documentaion.
*
*      This file provides a neat and simple method to interface with paypal and
*      The paypal Instant Payment Notification (IPN) interface.  This file is
*      NOT intended to make the paypal integration "plug 'n' play". It still
*      requires the developer (that should be you) to understand the paypal
*      process and know the variables you want/need to pass to paypal to
*      achieve what you want.  
*
*      This class handles the submission of an order to paypal aswell as the
*      processing an Instant Payment Notification.
*  
*      This code is based on that of the php-toolkit from paypal.  I've taken
*      the basic principals and put it in to a class so that it is a little
*      easier--at least for me--to use.  The php-toolkit can be downloaded from
*      http://sourceforge.net/projects/paypal.
*      
*      To submit an order to paypal, have your order form POST to a file with:
*
*          $p = new paypal_class;
*          $p->add_field('business', 'somebody@domain.com');
*          $p->add_field('first_name', $_POST['first_name']);
*          ... (add all your fields in the same manor)
*          $p->submit_paypal_post();
*
*      To process an IPN, have your IPN processing file contain:
*
*          $p = new paypal_class;
*          if ($p->validate_ipn()) {
*          ... (IPN is verified.  Details are in the ipn_data() array)
*          }
*
*
*      In case you are new to paypal, here is some information to help you:
*
*      1. Download and read the Merchant User Manual and Integration Guide from
*         http://www.paypal.com/en_US/pdf/integration_guide.pdf.  This gives 
*         you all the information you need including the fields you can pass to
*         paypal (using add_field() with this class) aswell as all the fields
*         that are returned in an IPN post (stored in the ipn_data() array in
*         this class).  It also diagrams the entire transaction process.
*
*      2. Create a "sandbox" account for a buyer and a seller.  This is just
*         a test account(s) that allow you to test your site from both the 
*         seller and buyer perspective.  The instructions for this is available
*         at https://developer.paypal.com/ as well as a great forum where you
*         can ask all your paypal integration questions.  Make sure you follow
*         all the directions in setting up a sandbox test environment, including
*         the addition of fake bank accounts and credit cards.

not every posted value can come back using IPN .. but, as mentioned, 'custom' will allow custom values to be posted back .. if you require several custom values to be posted back via IPN, create an array of values within the custom field, ie.

<input type="hidden" name="custom" value="value1-value2-value3" />

where - is separating the values, which then can be exploded and used appropriately by you and your server.

 

that's just an example to pass multiple, custom values with PayPal.

^check my post.

 

separate them using a delimiter like - or something .. so, as i mentioned, do something like :

 

<input type="hidden" name="custom" value="variable1-variable2-variable3" />

 

then...

 

$paypal[custom] = explode("-", $_POST['custom']);

 

then use freely as such...

 

$paypal[custom][0]; //is the first value in the $_POST['custom'] array, as set by you in the <input value="variable1" /> field.

 

obviously modify to your script, but that'll work.
