2011-01-08T03:23:05-08:00

Python recipe 577524 by Sunjay Varma (cgi, cookie, management, python, security, sessions). Revision 2.

I think this script should now be functional enough to post here at ActiveState. When you reply or vote down, please post some information on your problem with the code, and if you can, maybe something about the solution. This interface works, and is designed especially for Python. If you like it, don't be afraid to post that either, constructive criticism is all good, but compliments are even better! ;)

Get the latest version of this code here: http://wiki.sunjay.ca/Python:Contents/Python_Session

Latest Changes:

Added a new function for making the session cookie last longer. See code for set_expires. Note: This new function is just in case you need to include a session for longer than one brower session (for example, one day instead).

Paypal IPN (Python)

2006-09-19T19:02:54-07:00

Python recipe 456361 by Anthony Barker (cgi). Revision 2.

This is a cgi script that allows you to log an ipn request from paypal. Basically if you configure your paypal account with an ipn url it will send a post to a script url. You need to respond with a post and then will receive a VERIFIED response.

I've included a subroutine to log the data to a database, but you could simply use a text file if that is all you need.
