Support for 2Checkout header redirect [#998630]

2CO now has 3 modes of integration, Optional Return, Direct Return and Header Redirection. Header redirection passes variables from 2CO using $_GET. It is a relatively new integration option from 2CO released in June 2010. For many stores Direct Return will continue to be fine to use, however Header Redirection has some advantages if you have certain additional processing requirements. Read announcement from 2CO for details: http://www.2checkout.com/blog/knowledge-base/suppliers/tech-support/pass...

I propose that future editions of 2CO Payment Module for Ubercart support Header Redirection.

I'm currently trying to use Header Redirection with 6.x-2.4 and it seems to work by just replacing all instances of $_POST with $_REQUEST. However I'm not sure if that is considered sufficiently secure. Possibly instead the redirection method should be detected and then either $_POST or $_GET is used from that point forward? As far as I can tell all the variables passed by Header Redirection are the same as Direct Return, it is simply GET instead of POST.

I was having problems with direct return not returning in all cases which was becoming a nightmare for credit card orders that were completed but not being marked in drupal! I've made the changes to accomodate header redirect to see if that resolves the issues. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll let you know if it works for me.

New features should go into 7.x-3.x first.

Any update on this? Since we sell files, it seems the only way to efficiently process/complete orders is with a header redirect. Of course we are still on 6.x but was hoping there had been some work done, so I could look at it and work on a backport.
