Hi Rick thanks for your suggestion, the only place where i am facing the problem is i am having my paypal working and i am not able to get the notify_url option working for paypal_setup helper. I need a brief answer so that i can continue. Thanks a lot in advance. Note: I am not using active merchant nstead i use paypal plugin for all these stuff. The payments are being happened in the paypal but thats only updated in my database if at all the customer come back to my site from paypal. Else the payment is done in paypal but still it is not updating in my DB unless the users use the get back to XXX button after payment.

  I think you got my point . Any answer is sincerely appreciable

I'm not familiar with the paypal plugin. ActiveMerchant seems to be the most common tool for this job, and it makes it fairly easy to set up the right controllers to handle paypal ipn notifications (which come in as http requests from the Paypal servers).

Hi Rick and all..

   First of all Thank you and i am happy to say that my issue is resolved. I was worrying just about why it is not working even after every thing is in place. But then i came to know that IPN requires a valid public URL to work. So as and when i went in to production mode with my Code it started working. Once again thanks to all those (especially rick) who looked over in to my posting and tried to help me out with the solutions that you know.
