Auto Return Issue

I set "Auto Return" on,  and specify a return URL as my main domain.

 

I create a buy now button with unencrypted html codes, and specify a return url(it is valid) in the HTML codes.

 

But it doesn't redirect automatically after the payment, it just show a page with a button named "Return To Merchant", and I have to click this button to redirect to the return url I specify in the html codes.

 

Why?

How Auto Return Works:
* If the buyer pays with a PayPal account, they are automatically taken back to the site.

* If the buyer pays with the Credit Card Option, they are taken to the receipt page where PayPal gives them the chance to print out a receipt. This is a legal requirement. After that, the buyer must click on the "Return to Merchant" link in order to return to the site.

Notes: The Credit Card Option or PayPal Account Optional is turned on by default for new PayPal Premiere and Business accounts. With PayPal Account Optional turned off, people without PayPal accounts must sign up for a PayPal account. They can pay by credit card, but they must agree to sign up for a PayPal account before completing their transactions and making their payments. Only Premiere or Business accounts have PayPal Account Optional in their account profiles. With Personal accounts, the checkout experience is as if PayPal Account Optional were turned off.
