Auto login to the PayPal sandbox: php, E-Commerce

Auto login to the PayPal sandbox

Hello, I have a script that automatically makes a Paypal sandbox button.. but I was wondering if there was a way to auto log in so the testing would be faster.. is there an api or something I can pass the user and password so it's quicker to test... Thank you for the help...

Cheers
Jeremy

I made a page that would auto submit the form to login.. It's been sometime but I 'll show you what I did.

"action=https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-submit&dispatch= **************

<input type="hidden" name="login_params" value=" ********************

Is you might need to change the part past the above value to your own.. You can get the values be viewing the source of the page that is displayed before you login.. You need to right click on the "logging in" page and view the source. That is the page after you login that is displayed for apprx. 5 seconds. It will look similar to what is below. Change the user name, and Password fields to you info. Save the below code as an html page. Alter it with your info before opening the html page.

I hope this is clear for you.
