texte = We used existing PHP samples (download from paypal) to dive in and tweak to suit. (We [redirect] to/from webdna pages to php pages which actually do the talking to paypal. It just saved alot of work. So I can't give what you ask for here. If someone did put together a sample packet of webdna scripts like this, then in the end I imagine it would be like I found the php samples - enough to give enough idea how to dive in, but so much room/ need to tweak to suit... There is a fair amount of flexibility/ customizability of how you can make paypal behave according to what you want. On Dec 10, 2008, at 2:01 PM, Michael A.
