bigshwa05 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Hey everyone, I'm fairly new to PHP. I'm really at the point where I can perform simple tasks or make modifications to pre-written scripts. I am helping out with a charity golf tournament website and i need to create a registration form where users can sign up and then be directed to paypal. Once they have paid the registration fee i need their information to be logged with a note that their donation/payment has been recieved. The donation will always be the same amount as it covers a round of golf and dinner. Im not really sure if i could tackle something like this from scratch, so i was wondering if anybody out there knew of a script that could perform such a function without too much technical knowledge or even a tutorial. I've done some research and reading on the paypal site but i'm not having any luck Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/38420-php-registration-with-paypal-ipn/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
matlyn Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 This is where I started: http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/xcl/rec/ipn-code-outside Click the PHP link towards the bottom to see a sample processing script. I would suggest that you signup as a developer with PayPal and create what they call a 'sandbox' account. This allows you to test your script with practice transactions and fake credit card numbers. Best thing to do is print out some of the PDF manuals offered on the PayPal site and start reading. Basic overview is: Create a PayPal account Activate IPN Paste the code for your 'paynow' button to your site as a form Use their sample code (with your info tweaks) as the action script for the form That's all there is to it.
