I pasted the code for PayPal's Buy Now Button into a text module and it appears.  But it doesn't work when I click on it.

Does something need to be done on my end?

 

Thanks,

Eugene

Since you cannot have more than one < form > element present on an asp.net web page, you cannot simply paste the PayPal provided code into a Text/Html module. This blog post from John Mitchell provides a way to modify the PayPal code so that it can be used:

Another solution is to use one of several available PayPal Buy Now or Donate modules for DotNetNuke. Snowcovered.com and the DNN Market place list several low cost ones.

Not sure if Jon's solution is to use an IFrame, but that's also an option.

My recommendation is to use a PayPal module like the Gumbosoft one : you'll save a lot more time than the purchase price commands.  And you can use some of the better features of PayPal quickly and simply.

John Mitchell's modified code actually works, I just updated my html and it is now working. It may sometimes take a few seconds to pull the Pay Pal web site, but it certainly works. Thanks a bunch John!
