Integrating Paypal with PHP! Help needed

Hi people,

The paypal generated code is:

The different categories shown in the history of 'My Account' tab are :

Date | Type | Name/Email | Payment Status | Details | Order Status/Actions | Net Amount

Now I want to edit the above code so that when someone sends the payment from my website, its clearly shown in the history of paypal account that from where the payment is coming. By default i am viewing 'Payment From' in 'type' category and email of the sender in 'Name/Email' Category. I want that 'Salary For System' is to be shown in 'type' or 'Name/Email' Category whenever the payment is made from this particular site. So that it will be easier for me to recognise the payments from this particular site rather than viewing each payment's details.
The second thing i want is that the page should return to the 'thankyou' webpage after the pament is made.

Kindly solve these problems, i'll be vary very thankful to yuo.

Regards
XPS

 

To redirect the buyer to your thank you page use :

<input type="hidden" name="return" value="YOUR_RETURN_URL" />

Code (markup):

in your form.

You can also use the cancel_url to redirect the visitor to another page once s/he cancels the apyment:

<input type="hidden" name="cancel_return" value="YOUR_CANCEL_URL" />

Code (markup):

I don't think there is a way to change the name/email or the type...

 

Look at https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?..._ID=developer/e_howto_html_IPNandPDTVariables

You can use a custom field in your buttons.

 

But I don't think the custom value will show up in his history...

 

You could always change the name dynamically.

 

What name can you change?

 

<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Services_<?php echo $X ?>">

 

thank you so much. i have found it very helpful
