This is a pretty standard callback method, most systems will use it. When you sent the request, you should have the option of sending a custom value, such as your own generated transaction or invoiceID. If not then you could always send the CFID and CFTOKEN. This is what you need to use on the callback page to process the returned data and validate the transaction.
So if your orginal request page needs to wait for approval and then do something, you could simply check the database for the data saved by your callback page and then you will know if it failed or was successful.

I am just starting to integrate this payment service provider into our system to handle credit card payments for our customers in the Asia Pacific region. I already use a PSP here in the UK and I have a cfc which nicely implements the process - I feed in credit card, expiry date, amount currency etc etc and after an cfhttp call the cfhttp.filecontent contains the response as an XML packet... nice. For paydollar the implementation is slight different - I still do an cfhttp call but then I have to declare a URL to 'receive the results in realtime' and in addition declare 3 separate pages to display in case of error, decline or success. So paydollar in effect spawn a separate request to pass me the results and all I get back in the cfhttp.filecontent is one of the three pages I nominated. So I know broadly if it has been authorised, declined or some error - but the details are in another request! Any ideas on the best way to tie the requests together again? Can the results page know about the correct CF session scope? The nominated 'results URL' is not dynamic with each request by the way - just declared to them once. When it is run however it has access to the transactio details in the form scope. I really want to abstract the whole credit card payment so that it will pass to the appropriate PSP behind the scenes and pass back a standard response and codes. confused of UK -- Mike T Blog http://www.socialpoints.com/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
