Re: [kcmedia] Paypal Buy Now Button Issue

Hi Craig,

That is strange. There are a couple of things you can try.

The first I would try would be to hard code most of the form. Probably the only part of the form that would need to be dynamic would be the value of the "encrypted" field, the rest is probably static. So it would look something like this:


<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="encrypted" value="<?php echo $record['paypal_encrypted_value'];?>">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_AU/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal � The safer, easier way to pay online.">
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_AU/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
</form>


I would make the "paypal_encrypted_value" field a textfield (or if you wanted to use a text box, make sure you disable auto-formatting).

Give that a try and let us know what happens.

Thanks

Hi,

Could you provide a link to a page that demonstrates the problem? If you don't want to post the URL in the forum, please send it in an email to support@interactivetools.com. In the email, please reference this forum thread. If you could also provide FTP and CMS login details in the email, that would help us look into it further.

NOTE: don't post any login information to the forum.

Thanks
