Anyone using Seaside & Paypal?

Just curious as I get further in writing my web-app in Seaside, whether
or not anyone else here has implemented a paypal package that works in
conjunction w/ Seaside & VW? I could take a stab at implementing one,
but thought I'd ask first.. Thanks for any info you've got..

The ESUG registration application is using PayPal. I just generate a
redirect with some dynamic parts. You can plug this into an
anchor/button callback:

self session redirectTo: (WAUrl new
scheme: #https;
hostname: 'www.paypal.com';
port: 443;
addToPath: 'cgi-bin';
addToPath: 'webscr';
addParameter: 'cmd' value: '_xclick';
addParameter: 'business' value: '[hidden email]';
addParameter: 'item_name' value: 'Registration to ESUG 2005 Event';
addParameter: 'item_number' value: 'ESUG2005Registration';
addParameter: 'amount' value: self attendee totalFees asString;
addParameter: 'no_shipping' value: '1';
addParameter: 'no_note' value: '1';
addParameter: 'currency_code' value: 'EUR';
addParameter: 'charset' value: 'UTF-8';
asString).

Hope this helps?

Lukas

FWIW, here's something I dug out of my package-cache. I honestly
don't remember how useful this is (not very, I suspect), but maybe
it'll give someone some ideas.

Thanks Lukas --

Do you then get some sort of email back to the registered address (e.g.
[hidden email] in the above code) that indicates a payment was made?
If that's the case, I guess an order-id could be placed somewhere in the
info above that could be used to figure out the order when multiple
orders come in for different people at about the same time.

Is it ok if I put that on SqueakSource?

This is interesting. I wasn't aware that there was any https support in
Squeak.

I also connect to PayPal, but I use Stunnel for SSL. That way the POST
is just a normal http POST.

What exactly is the current level of https support in Squeak? And, how
realiable?

Opinions would be great.

The above code simply redirects to a https website, it does not use
anything https related to Squeak.

I use an Apache for HTTPS.

Some time ago the cryptography team announced a Smalltalk
implementation for SSL in Squeak. I don't know if it is already
useable for HTTPS and if it performs fast enough, but it is definitely
very cool ...

There is also a Curl plugin, that supports HTTPS.
