• If return_url is passed in, it returns to the page (i.e. return_url=http://www.example.com/mypage.html).
• If that is not passed in, it returns to the page the buyer clicked “buy” (by http_referer) from on your site (doesn’t work if you are testing from a page on your pc).
• If those 2 things are blank, it returns to the website url listed on the account.

Below are examples of how the return_url parameter may be implemented.
