Passing transaction info back to thank you page after Paypal transaction

[kduncan]

Hello All,

After some testing I revised the code to the following.

<?php
$curr_folder = dirname(__FILE__);
require_once("$curr_folder/includes/library.php");
$fields = ft_api_init_form_page();
$firstname = $fields["firstname"]; // first name
$transid = $fields["form_tools_submission_id"]; // userid
$city = $fields["city"]; // city
$state = $fields["state"]; // state
$zip = $fields["zip"]; // zip
$amount = $fields["amount"]; // amount
ft_api_clear_form_sessions();
?>

I'm not a top level programmer but I was able to get back data on my thank you/success page by making the following modification to my success.php file. (it is included in the files you download for a paypal form)

<?php
$curr_folder = dirname(__FILE__);
require_once("$curr_folder/includes/library.php");

require_once("../path to your/global/api/api.php"); //change this to point to your api.php file in the global folder.

$fields = ft_api_init_form_page();

$submission_id = $fields["form_tools_submission_id"]; //pulls in the submission id.

$submission_info = ft_get_submission_info(your form id, $submission_id); //replace this with the value of your form id. You can find this in formtools.

//pull in your form fields

$yourfieldname = $submission_info["yourfieldname"]; // use this construct to get all the field names you wish to display to the user.

ft_api_clear_form_sessions();
?>

Hope this helps. Any improvements to the code is more than welcome.
