I am trying to figure out a way to configure paypal and mysql. For example: After a user has purchased something, I want paypal to verify that the payment has gone through and it will update my database in phpmyadmin and it will output the necessary information (transaction id, how much etc.).
How would I be able to do the above? Can anyone provide links to tutorials and helpful steps. Thanks!
Also: I've tried looking through the paypal dev section, no luck. I've searched through multiple topics and I have had no luck into what I am looking for.
You want to utilize PayPayl's Instant Payment Notification (IPN) system.
IPN can be setup to make callbacks to your system. The callbacks include all of the information that you need, including the transaction ID and the status.
PayPal will not integrate with your database directly. You need a web server and some code in between PayPal and your database.
They provide sample code in various languages, including PHP.
Be sure to use their sandbox facility for testing. You'll need to apply for a sandbox account.

I've read dozens of threads about this subject and i know it is not possible to justify text in reporting services as in Word, Excel, Crystal Reports, etc. ..
I also know that it is unacceptable that in 2013 Microsoft has not put this option available, but I really have to solve this problem in one way or another ...
So, as I said, after reading dozens of threads on this subject, I concluded that my only option is to make a custom report item... but the problem is I cannot do it because it's to complex to me...
Is there anyone who has built a custom report item for this purpose and it's kind enough to share it?
Many thanks in advance!!
A bit of Googling shows that there are third-party products that can provide this additional functionality.
Aspose is one example: http://www.aspose.com/docs/display/pdfreportingservices/Justify+FullJustify+Text+Alignment

We have a new extension that we built for many months and is live on the webstore.
Our extension communicates with our API and we get many fake installs daily - installs that we see in our API and not in the web store.
After many sleepless nights - We suspect that a robot with chrome runs our extension and deletes the local storage every time - this is only our best guess, although we are not sure if it's likely because the IP of each installation is different.
There are many more details - so If you would like to help and need further info let me know what and I can elaborate.
I'm not familiar with this Chrome extension API, BUT, if someone earns money by letting people install your extension then I'd check that lead.
Eventually, the clients (many IPs you say) that apparently "install" your extension report this event by making an HTTP request - again I only presume!
Saying that, it might be that someone controls many computers which simply initiate these HTTP requests to "report" a (fake) installation, thus making money.
If that is the case, and someone does make money out of your extension (could be also INDIRECTLY) then check the affiliate code or whatever, this is even an issue to report to Google itself, they can certainly investigate that.

What's the difference between a bot on MediaWiki vs using the Rest Based api to do the operations?
If by "bot" you mean screen-scraping, such "bots" are severely discouraged and we developers don't make any guarantee that screen-scraping will work reliably, i.e. HTML output can drastically change at any moment without any prior notice. On the other hand, MediaWiki's web API is designed with stability in mind - in addition to other benefits such as machine-readable output (ol' good JSON is much easier to parse than tag soup) and better performance (we don't spend server resources on sking rendering, you don't spend bandwidth on receiving it).

I wanted to used standard TCP/IP connection using MYSQLconnection. Is this the best way?
Whether or not this is the best way depends on your environment. For many cases, this would not be the correct way to go about things, because the person running the client program would have direct access to your database. You would also be required to open your firewall to allow anybody running your application to have access to the database. Not only security problems, but if you wanted to change the queries being run to perform a particular action, then you would have to ensure that everyone updated their client program. An alternative way of doing something like this that may work better, would be to create a web server (XML, SOAP, JSON, etc.) that your VB.Net program called to complete various actions. That way the VB.Net program would not have to connect to the database directly, which would allow both for increased security, as well as allow you to change things on the server side such as table structure without the VB.Net program being aware.

Why we need RIA ? I didn't see any benefits from RIA？ it need a plugin to run it, this will bring headache to its user, compared to the regular html page.
Thanks.
RIA, or Rich Internet Applications, came as a ready solution to the problem of slackened Web browsing and low customer conversion rate.
RIA offers richer functionality by making use of HTML widgets available on standard browser-based Web applications.
Rich Internet Applications are providing users a multi-dimensional experience.
With the use of RIA, a part of the application runs directly within the users’ Web browser, allowing automatic navigation. It is a major improvement on traditional HTML and has transformed the static database of a website to a multi-functional online experience. Now, shoppers can see, “feel” and even try products online. RIA ensures large scale business returns and repeat visits, giving a boost to online business.
