Is this strange to happen at checkout on a website using PayPal?

I'm ready to purchase some low ticket items at a website online (that I doubt many people are thundering to buy) but at checkout it just didn't seem to be going the way it always does when I checkout with PayPal. I clicked on pay with PayPal and instead of it opening in a new window at PayPal to login, I was still on the site's webpages and they have a form there for me to enter my email address AND my PayPal login. I didn't do it as I have never ever clicked pay with Paypal and NOT been immediately shot over to the offical PayPal login page. These items I want to buy are not anything most people would want but hey, you never know these days with online scamming and phishing. How can I figure out if it is safe to use that login form while still on their website? I would NEVER enter my PP password on someone's website form. Has anyone ever seen this?? I can also pay with a credit card but at this point I'm hesitant to even enter that.

Per your post, seems quite suspicious. When in doubt, bail out. No reason to take the risk.
