Hello, My IPN page is working fine so far, just one problem here... I am passing my shipping variable manually to paypal, the shipping variable shows up fine on the paypal payment pages, but when I tries to retrieve that shipping variable in the IPN page so that I could insert it into my ASP emailing script, the variable doesn't show up(null)... please advice. Thanks in advance

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, no I am not using a shopping cart, I am using the buy now feature. Here is my form code(I've starred the 2 fields that I cannot retrieve the variable from-the shipping field and the amount field):

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="my business">
<input type="hidden" name="image_url" value="my logo">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="<%
Response.Write(Request.QueryString("brand"))
%> <%
Response.Write(Request.QueryString("stylename"))
%> <%
Response.Write(Request.QueryString("category"))
%> ">
<input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="<%
Response.Write(Request.QueryString("itemnumber"))
*********Below is my amount field************* %>">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="<%
Response.Write(Request.QueryString("price"))
%>">
<input type="hidden" name="custom" value="<%
Response.Write(Request.QueryString("custom"))
%>">
<input type="hidden" name="first_name" value="<%=(rs_customer.Fields.Item("FirstName").Value)%>">
<input type="hidden" name="last_name" value="<%=(rs_customer.Fields.Item("LastName").Value)%>">
<input type="hidden" name="address1" value="<%=(rs_customer.Fields.Item("StreetAddress").Value)%>">
<input type="hidden" name="city" value="<%=(rs_customer.Fields.Item("City").Value)%>">
<input type="hidden" name="state" value="<%=(rs_customer.Fields.Item("State").Value)%>">
<input type="hidden" name="zip" value="<%=(rs_customer.Fields.Item("Zip").Value)%>">
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="<%=(rs_customer.Fields.Item("Email").Value)%>">



*********Below is my shipping field*************
<input type="hidden" name="shipping" value="<% If rs_customer.Fields.Item("Country").Value="USA" then %>
$0.00
<% Else %>
$5.00
<% End if %>">

<input type="hidden" name="return" value="http://www.jadeboutique.com/index.asp">
<input type="hidden" name="cancel_return" value="http://www.jadeboutique.com/index.asp">
<input type="hidden" name="notify_url" value="My IPN page.asp"> ">
<input name="submit" type="image" src="Here is my buy now button" alt="buy now" border="0">



I have "starred" the 2 fields that I cannot retrieve the variables from(The shipping field and the amount field).

Thanks in advance for your help.

I apologize, but I don't really understand which form/script you meant, could you please clarify? Sorry....
