I'm actually starting to work on a struts/paypal project such as this. If you're interested, there's a paypal dev forum, at paypaldev.org.
Under IPN, there's a java area. My username is OpenMLS, of course. :)
As of right now, I have new posters choose a listing type then a jsp forwards the user to a secure paypal payment page. I pass a couple of parameters such as business name, price, etc. The poster makes the payment and is returned to a success page or cancel page.
My next version is sort of what you're looking to do.
HTH,
Corey :^)

Sorry it's a bit OT but I know of no other forum where I might find java developers doing e-commerce. googling brings up only rubbish or purchasable solutions (could be my search terms though...)
I'm trying to figure out a way of incorporating paypal into my e-commerce site, but it is difficult to automate, since paypal handles the payment transaction on their own site and the only feedback returned is (1) customer forwarded to either my own success-page or cancel-page and (2) paypal email to me
Has anybody set up an e-commerce site with paypal that handles this?
I'm thinking of using user sessions, transactions tokens and so on to try to handle it.
Thanks Adam
