Actually, I set the other site up locally (the one that worked) on my dev box and it is doing the same thing. Weird.
The whole process is pretty useless without the URL variables. Hopefully someone else is seeing this or has seen it before? -----Original Message----- From: Bobby Hartsfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 28, 2005 6:23 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: PayPal button return URL I am sort of new to the whole PayPal payment in my applications. Ive only done this one other time and it seems to work just fine but I cant see the difference that is causing it to fail between my old working app and the one Im currently working on. I gave the Paypal button both the return field and cancel_return field. When I get to the sandbox, I can hit pay or cancel. Cancel goes back to the url I tell it to. When I hit buy it goes to the next (confirmation) screen with a Return to Merchant button that brings them back to the site. It comes back to the correct url but the url variables are missing. Eg.. I have <input type="hidden" name="return" value="http://mysite.com/join/index.cfm?act=ppcomf&okey=#orderkey#";> But when it comes back to the site it comes back to HYPERLINK "http://mysite.com/join/index.cfm"http://mysite.com/join/index.cfm? Ive looked at the source of the paypal Return to Merchant button and the forms action is indeed the correct path: Action=HYPERLINK "http://mysite.com/join/index.cfm?act=ppcomf&okey=jw8ahsj3o8dm1mn"http:/ /mysite.com/join/index.cfm?act=ppcomf&okey=jw8ahsj3o8dm1mn Here is the source of the actual button on my site... <form action="https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"; method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick"> <input type="hidden" name="business" value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Membership"> <input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="jw8ahsj3o8dm1mn"> <input type="hidden" name="amount" value="20.00"> <input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="return" value="http://mysite.com/join/index.cfm?act=ppcomf&okey=jw8ahsj3o8dm1mn";> <input type="hidden" name="cancel_return" value="http://mysite.com/join/index.cfm?act=canceled&okey=jw8ahsj3o8dm1mn";> <input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD"> <input type="hidden" name="lc" value="US"> <input type="hidden" name="bn" value="PP-BuyNowBF"> <input type="image" src="https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but03.gif"; border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!"> </form> (Hopefully, all of that stays in a readable format when I hit send!) Anyone see something Im missing? I just cant see why it would cut off the url vars like that. Thanks for any help. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
