Paypal IPN with Register Globals Off?

Has anyone have a paypal ipn.php code that will work with Register globals off?

I turned them on via .htaccess but it doesn't appear to be working.

The one I am using doesn't appear to be working properly and I was unable to find one using search.

It may be my security on my server. Is there anything I can advise my server admin to open up to allow this to work?

 

I would think changing it to not require Register Globals wouldn't be too difficult to do.

Try adding this code to the top of the script and see of it helps:

if($_GET){
    foreach($_GET as $key => $value){
        $key = 'tmp_'.$key;
        $$key = $value;
    }
}

if($_POST){
    foreach($_POST as $key => $value){
        $key = 'tmp_'.$key;
        $$key = $value;
    }
}

Thanks for the tip. I have tested Paypal's ipn test script and it keeps coming back saying invalid pin. I call it using www.domain.com/ipn.php?ipn_email=me@myemail.com

Could it be a function on my server or security setting preventing it from sending data to Paypal's server?

If I get this working I have no problem paying whoever helps for their time in assisting me.

<?php

$email = $_GET['ipn_email'];


//This script is pointing at the Live paypal server

$req = 'cmd=_notify-validate';

foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
$value = urlencode(stripslashes($value));
$req .= "&$key=$value";
}


// post back to PayPal system to validate
$header .= "POST /cgi-bin/webscr HTTP/1.0\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Length: " . strlen($req) . "\r\n\r\n";
$fp = @fsockopen ('www.paypal.com', 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);


$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

$message = <<<my_msg
The IP address that called this script was $ip
-----------------------------------------
-------Begin Query String------------
$req
my_msg;





if (!$fp) {
// HTTP ERROR
} else {
fputs ($fp, $header . $req);
while (!feof($fp)) {
$res = fgets ($fp, 1024);
if (strcmp ($res, "VERIFIED") == 0) {
// 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




mail($email,"LiveSite-VERIFIED IPN",$message, "From: webmaster@{$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}\r\n");




}
else if (strcmp ($res, "INVALID") == 0) {
// log for manual investigation

mail($email,"LiveSite-INVALID IPN",$message, "From: webmaster@{$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}\r\n");



}
}
fclose ($fp);
}
