Hello,

Editing an existing site built with CodeIgniter, so I'm not super familiar with this. Hoping someone can shed some light on this for me.

I have a site that is laid out thusly: Main Page Entry > Amount Slider > PayPal > Guest List > Confirmation. When I send the users to PayPal and it returns to my site, it provides me a URL that looks like so:

Code:
http://example.com/page3.php?payer_id=8675309&amount=300&payment_type=instant&payment_status=complete&custom=182&...

I need to figure out a way to have that information passed into my database. Functions existed for this previously, but they never worked properly.

The Guest List page is running a echo form_open(), and the database entry stuff is in there. However, I feel like the relevant code isn't being executed, since the URL is generated on page load instead of afterwards. (Please let me know if this doesn't make any sense.)

Could I use a $_GET or something of the sort to pull those PayPal variables down to hidden fields or something, or is there an easy way to do this that I'm just missing?

Thanks.
