Notify Remote URL: Help Required

Recommended Posts

I have created a paypal ipn script. Now in this script, at the end when I record that transaction is successful, I need to invoke/ping an external url to notify the affiliate script so it records the affiliate sale.

 

This remote URL has query string parameters too:

 

It's a URL like:

somedomain.com/idevaffiliate/sale.php?profile=1111&idev_saleamt=1&idev_ordernum=1&idev_option_1=name&idev_option_2=email@gmail.com&idev_option_3=2

 

How can I invoke this exact URL including params? Any sample code pls?

 

Any help pls?

somedomain.com/idevaffiliate/sale.php?profile=1111&idev_saleamt=1&idev_ordernum=1&idev_option_1=name&idev_option_2=email@gmail.com&

$profile = $_GET['profile'];
$idev_saleamt = $_GET['idev_saleamt'];
$idev_ordernum = $_GET['idev_ordernum'];
$idev_option_2 = $_GET['idev_option_2'];

if isset(.....)//check for all of them 
{
mail('person@site.com', 'Affiliate sale', "$profile bought $ordernum"); //Won't work.. but use mail() function
}

 

Simple and without any security really.. but it'll work if you go to the url..
