How can I pass PHP variables value to Client Code for Paypal
I am trying to integrate Paypal with my website and facing issues with this. The problem is that I cannot seem to find a way to send the PHP variables value, that is the TOTAL AMOUNT to Paypal code
Suppose I have a variable
$finalAmount = 220;
This value is dynamic and will change with each user. I need to pass it below inside the Paypal code
<script>
paypal.Button.render({
// Configure environment
env: 'sandbox', // sandbox | production
// PayPal Client IDs - replace with your own
// Create a PayPal app: https://developer.paypal.com/developer/applications/create
client: {
sandbox: 'CODE_HERE',
// production: 'demo_production_client_id'
},
// Customize button (optional)
locale: 'en_US',

Remember that javascript is client side. If you have the amount to be paid in your javascript then anyone with a little web development experience can edit this amount and pay way less (ore more?) than they should.

I'm not sure what the exact flow of your website is. But at some point you will have to tell paypal about the payment. At this point you should use PHP to query your database for the price. If you get this value from your javascript there will always be a chance that a user has edited the value.

Is it just me or is the whole Client Integration scheme horribly insecure? All the credentials, order details, callback URLs, etc, are sitting there vulnerable to be edited, replayed, etc... Is there an example anywhere of a real-world implementation of client side integration that is secure?

create a new hidden input field with a unique id and get the value of that field in js. for example
In your PHP Page :
<input type="hidden" id="finalAmount" value="<?php echo $finalAmount ?>">
In Your js code :
var finalAmount = $('#finalAmount').val();
Hopefully, you will get the amount you are looking for :)
