DPM Error Handling and general flow

I am very new to the whole authorization.net ecosystem I am trying to setup DPM and I followed the sample code and I am running into an issue.  If I run this function and the transaction is successful, it sends POST info to the $url and I can access it and eveything is fine. However if I enter in incorrect information this needs to go back to the input page so the user can correct it not go to the generic transaction failed message. How can this be done? am I doing something wrong? I found this link on here that is the exact same issue but when he solved it he did not explain how. Here is my code for the call. Taken directly from the sample code

public function donate($token)
	{
		$url = "http://example.com/donate/complete";
		$api_login_id = '************';
		$transaction_key = '***********';
		$md5_setting = '******'; // Your MD5 Setting
		$amount = "5.99";
		AuthorizeNetDPM::directPost($url, $api_login_id, $transaction_key, $amount, $md5_setting);
	}

 And this is my AuthorizeNetDPM.php file I downloaded from the SDK.

<?php
/**

 * Step 2: Receive a response from AuthorizeNet, do your business logic, and return
 *         a relay response snippet with a url to redirect the customer to.
 *
 * Step 3: Show a receipt page to your customer.

Hi calvinmoss1,

 

Ths fix is to set x_relay_always to TRUE. The x_relay_always option was created to give developers more control in cases where the transaction was attempted but did not really complete.

 

Thanks,

Joy
