   Hi
   I just finishing read this great tutorial but I
   have a question, how do I access the variables send from the form.
   For example the custom field has the username in it. I need to update data in a MySQL database where the row matchs the username, would I use
   $HTTP_POST_VARS[”custom”]
   Thanks in advance

   Look the form is auto-submitted to the paypal site, you need a second page which will update the database first and the will copy/fill the value to the form and submit it to the paypal site.

   1. Submit a custom form to the database
   2. Get the data from the database, fill the form with all required data
   3. Post (auto submit) this form to paypal

   note that $HTTP_POST_VARS['custom'] is not supported on PHP5 web hosts
