Introduction
This extension allows you to process credit cards and other financial
transactions using Verisign Payment Services, formerly known as Signio
(http://www.verisign.com/products/payflow/pro/index.html).
When using these functions, you may omit calls to
pfpro_init() and pfpro_cleanup()
as this extension will do so automatically if required. However the
functions are still available in case you are processing a number of
transactions and require fine control over the library.
You may perform any number
of transactions using pfpro_process() between the two.
These functions were added in PHP 4.0.2.
Note:
These functions only provide a link to Verisign Payment Services. Be sure
to read the Payflow Pro Developers Guide for full details of the required
parameters.
Note: This extension is not
available on Windows platforms.
Requirements
You will require the appropriate SDK for your platform, which may be
downloaded from within the manager
interface once you have registered. If you are going to use this
extension in an SSL-enabled webserver or with other SSL components (such
as the CURL+SSL extension) you MUST get the beta SDK.
Once you have downloaded the SDK you should copy the files from
the lib directory of the
distribution. Copy the header file pfpro.h
to /usr/local/include
and the library file libpfpro.so to
/usr/local/lib.
Installation
These functions are only available if PHP has been compiled with the
--with-pfpro[=DIR] option.
Runtime Configuration
The behaviour of these functions is affected by settings in php.ini.
