Hello, and sorry to post this here because it is not a CCS question, but I did not have an answer in PayPal forums in days of posting. This questions is for those that uses Paypal, I appreciate a lot your kind help.
I did a couple of Paypal test buttons with a return URL like this:
http://www.mywebsite.com/downloads/downloads.php?id=1 (or 2)
where the id is the product number, I make the test payment, I got automatically redirected to the download page and I got the file download, this works very good.
But now I need to allow only downloads requests from sandbox.paypal.com only, I tried using $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] but I did and echo and it is empty.
How can I download only when a request comes from the sandbox.paypal.com web site? I use PHP5. The solution has to work also when going with the true Paypal payment system.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards
joejac

this is not a direct answer to your question but it may help solve your problem...
i think you are wanting to ensure that someone who buys your product doesnt share the download link or in case someone stumbles upon it accidentally.
you could modify this registration example:

in a number of ways. you could make each link require a timestamp, you could make each link work only once by adding another hidden field that is submitted to db on before show or on click on a page element etc
