Hi

 

First question is: do PayPal send a callback to the server for each time the payment is collected?

Would nice if it did, have some calculations that should be done on the server when the payment is collected. Can do it manually but that is not nice...

 

Second question, Below you see a subscription button I created, but something is wrong, When I test it I'm sent to paypal, I login but see no information about starting a subscription... I'm following this guide: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/paypal-payments-standard/integration-guide/Appx_websitesta.... I think there is a few fields I am missing, not sure which

  <form target="_self" action="https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
  	<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="NOK">
  	<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="45245">

  	<input type="hidden" name="a3" value="116">
  	<input type="hidden" name="p3" value="1">
  	<input type="hidden" name="t3" value="W">
  	  	  	  	
  	<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_subscribeCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!">
  	<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">               			
  </form>
