Hi I'm designing a script for someone that wants to have an online registration form where people can sign up for a certain event. There is also a cost to attend the event. So I need to have something where they can pay online. liberty reserve seems like the easiest way to do this. Can somebody show me how to design a script that forwards the person to liberty reserve to pay for the item and then sends them back to the website after they have paid? Thanks .

I understand where you are coming from. Some of the comments are a little harsh.

I first used computers and then started wring code for web sites. As a computer user you have nice interfaces and widgets and gadgets to make the computer do things.

When I first started programming I was surprised that there wasn't a 'Make Online Shop' button in Dreamweaver.

"Oh! Do I really have to do all that just to do this!"

Years later, I am still improving my online payment system.

The answer to this question is:

  • Expect things to take longer/involve more work than you first anticipate
  • Expect to have to investigate / read up about your 'problem domain' and ideas for solutions.
  • Keep learning about web programming

or - Buy a solution or get someone else to do it
