Hi all-
Has anybody worked with PayPal's Instant Payment Notification?

hi guys!
i've been working on this darn instant payment notification script
for weeks now. I've gotten pretty close based on some recent posts

way to do this, perhaps as part of a (free or low-cost) shopping cart
and payment prcoessing system. Also, there seems to be no way to test
this without sending the Paypal user money. (I am going to contact
Paypal
Actually it doesn't seem like too much of a hack, except that it seems
to be not a realtime operation (otherwise why would they need to contact
your script?).
