How to use PAYPAL buy now button in PHP website?

I have a question. I want to use paypal as payment gateway on my PHP website. I know how to use it. I mean I know how to implement it on my web but I don't know the last part of process. I mean when user click on pay now, user will be redirected to paypal site and can pay amount by paypal account or credit/debit card. But how will I know that transaction is successful or not? What data will I get from paypal to my website? I can create automatic system that detects payment was successful or not once I know what data will I receive from paypal site. So can anyone help me?

I've found this tuotorial on website her http://b89.in/mZluLD so please if anyone knows good or better or different way to use paypal service, let me know.

And one more thing, I am using mysqli instead of mysql connection.

Thank you.

That tutorial you linked is the correct way to do it...using IPN.

Here's a template that will get you up and running very quickly with IPN. It comes complete with a MySQL table installer and it will log all of the IPN data in the database for you, as well as provide a very basic web-based admin panel.

If you're using PHP 5.3+ (and actually utilizing it) then you'll find better IPN class libraries available on GitHub and Packagist.
