Anyone, I need some help getting the STATUS_URL to work properly. I have read everything in the SCI, and it appears that it SHOULD work identically to the PAYMENT_URL with PAYMENT_URL_METHOD set to "FORM". Am I correct, or wrong? When using the PAYMENT_URL with PAYMENT_URL_METHOD set to "FORM", my solution works fine, BUT only when the client actually clicks on the "CONTINUE" button after spending us e-gold. If they just perform the spend and then never click on the "CONTINUE" button, we do not get the confirmation. So, I decided I would be smart and just move the URL that was in the PAYMENT_URL over to the STATUS_URL and make PAYMENT_URL a static "Thank You" page. But now the exact same URL that properly received all the data and BAGGAGE_FIELDS that were working with PAYMENT_URL no longer works. Something is definitely hitting the URL, because my database is entering six (6) blank entries into it after a spend (with no click on the continue button). They are right after each other, as if e-gold's server thinks it couldn't get to the URL and retries up to 5 more times. The following shows the timing... 1/25/2001 14:07:16 1/25/2001 14:07:37 1/25/2001 14:07:58 1/25/2001 14:08:19 1/25/2001 14:08:40 1/25/2001 14:09:24 After six attempts, it gives up. Am I wrong to assume that the POST to STATUS_URL should be identical to PAYMENT_URL? My form is rather large, but here are the most important parts... <FORM method="post" action="https://www.e-gold.com/sci_asp/payments.asp"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYEE_ACCOUNT" value="100000"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYEE_NAME" value="YourHost.com"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="STATUS_URL" value="https://secure2.yourhost.com/orderform/index.cgi"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="NOPAYMENT_URL" value="https://secure2.yourhost.com/orderform/index.cgi?get={{tracking}}"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="NOPAYMENT_URL_METHOD" value="LINK"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYMENT_URL" value="https://secure2.yourhost.com/orderform/thankyou.htm"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYMENT_URL_METHOD" value="LINK"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYMENT_AMOUNT" value="{{Total_Order}}"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYMENT_UNITS" value="1"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="BAGGAGE_FIELDS" value="ticket recipient cc required print_config subject courtesy_reply courtesy_template courtesy_our_url courtesy_our_email courtesy_reply_texta courtesy_reply_textb courtesy_who_we_are courtesy_who_we_are2 append_db db_delimiter db_fields Choice Name EMail Type((LIST))"> ...{many more hidden fields truncated out for readability} Choose Metal: <SELECT name="PAYMENT_METAL_ID"> <OPTION value="1">e-gold <OPTION value="2">e-silver <OPTION value="3">e-platinum <OPTION value="4">e-palladium </SELECT><BR> </FORM> The "{{tracking}}", "{{Total_Order}}" and "((LIST))" fields are special template variables that get replaced with data from a previous form. The form that was working fine before (minus the problem of client not clicking on continue) is here... <FORM method="post" action="https://www.e-gold.com/sci_asp/payments.asp"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="ticket" value="{{ticket}}"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYEE_ACCOUNT" value="100000"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYEE_NAME" value="YourHost.com"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="STATUS_URL" value="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="NOPAYMENT_URL" value="https://secure2.yourhost.com/orderform/index.cgi?get={{tracking}}"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="NOPAYMENT_URL_METHOD" value="LINK"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYMENT_URL" value="https://secure2.yourhost.com/orderform/index.cgi"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYMENT_URL_METHOD" value="POST"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYMENT_AMOUNT" value="{{Total_Order}}"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="PAYMENT_UNITS" value="1"> <INPUT type="hidden" name="BAGGAGE_FIELDS" value="ticket recipient cc required print_config subject courtesy_reply courtesy_template courtesy_our_url courtesy_our_email courtesy_reply_texta courtesy_reply_textb courtesy_who_we_are courtesy_who_we_are2 append_db db_delimiter db_fields Choice Name EMail Type((LIST))"> ...{many more hidden fields truncated out for readability} Choose Metal: <SELECT name="PAYMENT_METAL_ID"> <OPTION value="1">e-gold <OPTION value="2">e-silver <OPTION value="3">e-platinum <OPTION value="4">e-palladium </SELECT><BR> </FORM> Please help, Deen Foxx (CTO) [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-tech as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
