I am trying to add a button to my skin that will launch the PayPal cart.  The information from Paypal calls for a form which does not work within the skin....  Is there a way to simply pass a link to that cart?  Any help is greatly appreciated.

in an ASP.net application there cannot be any Form, The page is allready within a form. So basically you cannot place a form in skin or content area.

You do need to create a module to do so, or purchase a third party module I have seen a few on the popular stores

Hi Todd,

I did a bit of research a long time ago on this, and John Mitchell was a lot of help.  I have pasted in below part of a response he gave me.  Hope it helps.

This Javascript will open a product in the PayPal Standard Cart and allow you to use it the way PayPal intended, not the way DNN or .Net  intended.  IT WILL NOT WORK with more than ONE instance on a page because of the DNN form tags already on a page.  So it must be used like an "articles" type of catalog where this appears on the second page for a "more" description the way the articles or repository modules do.

The "form" from PayPal would go above the following javascript.  Be sure to remove the <Form> </Form> tags at the beginning and end of the PayPal code or it will not work.

 
There are other posts from John Mitchell and on the forums.asp.net boards.
