Do you know of a simple PayPal payment script?

[Eagle Web Solutions]

Hi

Does anyone know of a simple PayPal payments script that can be added to a web site? I'd like to avoid using a full e-commerce shopping basket solution if possible.

An example of use would be: a product/service costs £100. The buyer clicks to pay and the £100 is picked up by the script and the buyer is directly taken through the normal PayPal payment procedure. I guess the script needs to know where to find the cost of the product/service, but I'm trying to do this as simply as possible without the overhead of an e-commerce package.

My server uses Linux. Has anyone come across a reliable and supported script? Many thanks in advance.

If you have a paypal account you can generate a 'payment button' and set the amount to be anything you like.

If you need it to be dynamic - i.e. not always 100 pounds - then set the amount on the website to be a variable (in, say, PHP), so the PayPal button uses that variable to be the amount.

Go to your paypal account and click merchant tools. If you just want one or two buttons use the button maker to genrate HTML or if you want a shopping basket with a view cart feature choose shoppingbasket.

It's really easy, even I can do it! LOL

Already been said above.

Dead easy to make 'Pay Now' buttons and then copy/paste them into the web page.

We use them all the time.
