We would like to automate our website subscription sales through paypal. Currently when we make a paypal sale once paypal notifies us of a sale we manually load a userid/password into our system. We would like a script that integrates with paypal. We would like that when a paypal subscription sale is made the purchaser is instantly transferred to a script to create their own userid/password and granted access to the members area of our website. I understand there are both good and bad ways to do this. Obviously we need need security so that only those who made a valid paypal purchase can access this script.

I'm an experienced developer, worked with Paypal before. This will be a "piece of cake" :) Kindly check the private message I've sent you for more details on my bid.

I would modify your "Signup" page and add a form to collect the userid / password. I would have them enter them on the front-end and then have them pay. You can either choose to go ahead and add them into your database (assuming you have a way to inactivate users since you sell for limited time periods) before paying and just activate on the back-end or send it all over and back. You would need to use IPN to get the information after they pay. Once the information is collected via IPN - you can then activate the user. Since you can't force a user to come back to your site from paypal - I'd do it this way instead of the way you originally suggested. I have successfully used IPN for several sites to have a user subscribe / register for something using PHP and mySQL. IPN can be tricky to debug - so I would hope that you have access to server log files so that you can see the calls. I also noticed that all of your pages are html - not PHP - so a basic page in PHP with your design would need to be created and the form added to it.
