Hi,
I have a simple website to sell a license key for some software I made, Ive used the simple paypal "Pay Now" static buttons to incorporate payment, how can I get paypal information returned to my site, things like a paypal reference or error codes. Is it something to do with return url query parameters?
Im using code like this to call paypal... any help much appreciated!
