=I appreciate the help, as this =is all new to me.I followed the instructions =on this page: http://webdna.us/page.dna?=numero=3D302I ran the IPN simulator test on Paypal =Developer and it worked. I assume I need to add some code to the IPN =notification page on my server to interact with the database to mark the =team as paid. Does the IPN variable string pass all variables =through?EddieOn =4/11/13 11:51 PM, "Stuart Tremain" <webdna@idfk.com.au> =wrote:=EddieHave a look at =these:I have a couple of my own that =may help you if that is not what you are =after.RegardsStuart =TremainIDFK Web DevelopmentsAUSTRALIA

The =main issue I have with this method is that oftentimes teams =will enter their info, get to the payment page atPaypal and =then bail, which leaves me with an unfinishedregistration. =I'm interested in skipping Paypal and doing it allright on =my site, but I don't know what I all need to do.=I know I will need a SSL certificate, and to use<http://authorize.net/>Au=thorize.net or someone similar to link tomy merchant, =but I don't know if there's anything special I needto do in =the code.
