Payment details in return URL?

Hello. I would like a donation button on my website that, when clicked, does the following:

 

1. the person is transferred to Paypal
2. donates an arbitrary amount which they specify there

3. and is transferred back to my website, to a page where they are thanked for donating the amount they donated.

 

So ideally, the page they are returned to on my website would have parameters in its URL, something like:
www.mywebsite.com/donation_return_page.html?amount=10&currency=USD

And then my site's javascript would craft the thankyou message.

 

The key thing is the payment details being included in the return URL. Can Paypal do this?

 

Thank you.

See:

Does all three but not sure about returning a url that has the payment details on it.

 

You will need to post in the merchant tech support boards.  Just go to the main page of the boards and swipe or click to the image til you see merchant tech support community.
