The checkout process and responses.

I have a number of different questions regarding the API
integration.

I am a C# developer and have just setup my sandbox accounts
and have
sent a test purchase to the sandbox using the "Google
Checkout Sample
Code for .NET" and the GCheckout.dll.

So here are my questions here:

1) Users who are making a purchase are always sent to the
Google
checkout website to complete there order? Is there no way
the user can
remain on my website and checkout?
2) If the user is sent to the Google pages to checkout, how
am I able
to see that the users credit card has been processed and
accepted so
that I can remove the item from inventory so that no one
else can
order it?
3) Is there any way to "customize" the look and
feel of the Google
checkout pages?
4) If the Notification API or the Order Processing API is
what I need
to implement to get a response back from Google on an orders
status or
financial state and I have to setup a web service to receive
these
responses. Is there any example code for these web
services?

That is all for now guys, thanks,

Duncan

Don't know 1) and 3) - will be interested to hear.

2) The notification API.

4) Setting up a "webservice" is no big deal.  Just
create a simple
ASPX page with no user interface, this is your callback
page.  Create
an XMLdocument object.  Load the XML posted by Google into
it, e.g.
myXML.load(request.inputstream).  Then read the information
you need
from the various elements provided - it is just an XML
document at
this point so you can do whatever (but remember the
namespace).  To
get it all working, setup the URL of your callback page in
the
Merchant Center, and then run some test transactions.  It is
a good
idea to save the XML you receive to disk, then you can
inspect it more
easily.  It is also useful to configure your callback ASPX
so that it
can take data either from Google, or by loading from an
alternative
disk file that you provide - that way you can test it
without having
to place orders all the time.
