PayPal Shopping Carts

Post by thalamus »

Anyone ever set one of these up? I'm tinkering with one at the moment (at the client's request, so no anti-PayPal whinging please :D), but having trouble adding user-specified Tax amounts...

Used it for the Hidden Music T-shirts. Worked OK, but I'm not VAT registered. Could you do it via shipping options or something?

Have you checked out the dreamweaver paypal toolkit? It's free, and is quite good.

Even if you don't normally use dreamweaver it maight be an idea to download the trial and give it a whirl.
Because fucking marketing cunts would never call a spade anything other than a Deluxe Easi-Shift Earth Movement Solution.

I found it pretty easy, if you go on the paypal website and just copy the required html bits into the relevant part of the page you are doing it works ok. But as someone else said I'm also not VAT registered so didn't need to charge extra.

Bit of Javascript should take care of it. Text box where user enters amount , which is then multiplied by order total , and then pass the variable total to Paypal , rather then the order price.

Should be simple enough : but don't know enough Javascript to test
