I found the way to go around the problem by setting auto return from paypal site. But this session tracking problem still gets my curiosity so far.

However, what i need to do next is searching the user from the server based on that session_id and interact with that particular user (like show message and ask user to navigate to the account page... ) On Wed, Jan 19, 2011 at 1:09 PM, cricket <[email protected]> wrote: > On Tue, Jan 18, 2011 at 12:36 AM, Tran Cao Thai > <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi cakers, > > > > I have been developed a Paypal payment system recently.
