PayPal Authenticaton

Wed, 2012-04-18 23:22 — marcs

Is it possible for Simon to authenticate into a PayPal account? Simon Service Username: and Password: fields don't seem to work. However, I am able to populate PayPal's 'Email address' field with a parameter named 'login_email'. Unfortunately, an additional parameter named 'login_password' does not populate PayPal's 'PayPal password' field.

Re: PayPal Authenticaton

In theory if you use a Post method and include as parameters all of the input values it expects (including hidden ones), that should work. They might do some tricks to prevent that, though.

Thanks anyway. I suspect that Simon cannot work with input fields where 'autocomplete="off"'.
