I am trying to integrate Paypal IPN to an application which I am developing. And I am stuck in a problem which is regarding shipping address. I need to know how to send the address variables to Paypal, as a request so that User can see that address on paypal. Please tell me the variables which should be sent to paypal, which paypal treats as shipping address(or delivery address).
Thanks in advance.

The payer is shown the passed-in address but cannot edit it. No address is shown if the address is invalid, such as missing required fields like country, or if the address is not included at all.
