paypal - How to know the URL referrer in PHP? -
I'm new to integrating PayPal with sites, so easily from the service I can use Can the available method be? What am I trying to do, when the user clicks on "Return to my website", I want my return URL to know that the referrer is PayPal so I can send it automatically to the homepage . how to do this?
I tried $ _ SERVER ['HTTP_REFERER']
but it does not seem like anything. During the IPN conversation I set the cookie and session (though I am not sure whether I am correcting it or doing this right), but on returning to my website, it does not seem to recognize any session .
If I use it by using $ _ SERVER ['HTTP_REFERER']
, then I'm afraid it's a security risk, is not it? If so, is there any other way I remember? help please.
Should you really know the referrer? Set the PayPal Return URL to a "secret" URL which is always redirected to the homepage. If someone reaches there and gets redirected without coming from PayPal, then what? This should not be a problem.
In addition, I have not used PayPal, but I imagine that any IPN notification will be requested directly from the PayPal server, not the user, so any cookie set or session You will not do very well.
