PP Express Checkout need to return FEEAMT variable

I need to return the FEEAMT as display in the FULL RESPONSE like so

RESULT=0&PNREF=EUJP5D317BEF&RESPMSG=Approved&AVSADDR=Y&AVSZIP=Y&TOKEN=EC-56J8431826888421H&PAYERID=CTY5D5PM9UPQN&PPREF=3JY551007S2876314&CORRELATIONID=247541067846&FEEAMT=0.51&TAXAMT=1.93&PAYMENTTYPE=instant&PENDINGREASON=completed

as an individual amount so I can log it in the database. How can I achieve this please as for the life of me I cannot get it to return.

Thanks.

use the explode function on the & character to create an array of each response, the explode on the = character to get the value:

example:

<?php

$response = "RESULT=0&PNREF=EUJP5D317BEF&RESPMSG=Approved&AVSAD DR=Y&AVSZIP=Y&TOKEN=EC-56J8431826888421H&PAYERID=CTY5D5PM9UPQN&PPREF=3JY5 51007S2876314&CORRELATIONID=247541067846&FEEAMT=0. 51&TAXAMT=1.93&PAYMENTTYPE=instant&PENDINGREASON=completed";

$tFee = 0;

$responses = explode("&", $response);

for ($n=0; $n<sizeof($responses); $n++) {

    $tResponse = explode("=", $responses[$n]);

    if ($tResponse[0] == "FEEAMT") {

        $tFee = $tResponse[1];

        break;

    }

}



echo $tFee;

?>

you know sometimes I think I should beat myself over the head for being so dense, of course that's the way to do it

been staring at the wood and can't see the trees

thanks as ever Jason

This value should be returned by the Express Checkout. Have you used the binding for this value in your code? If so what result do you get with it?

When I add this binding to the page it looks like this:

<?php echo WA_PP_ECO_GetValue($WA_PP_ECO_DoResult, "FeeAmount"); ?>

Where is this binding available from ?

This is what I can see

I see now that the binding you are referring to is available on the pp_confirm.php page but is not available on the pp_checkout_success.php page

it would appear that the sb that provides this binding is the post to paypal ?

Yes, exactly. The PayPal server behaviors that are on the confirm and pp_confirm pages set the bindings on those pages for the response values. I usually just drag them onto the confirm page and then cut and paste them onto the success or failure page if they are needed there.

OK I see your methodology now, thanks
