Hi,
I normal just use "buy now" buttons which have always worked fine, however when I tried to add a subscribe button I always getting the following error from the PayPal page after I click it.
We cannot process this transaction because there is a problem with the PayPal email address supplied by the seller. Please contact the seller to resolve the problem. If this payment is for an eBay listing, you can contact the seller via the "Ask Seller a Question" link on the listing page. When you have the correct email address, payment can be made at www.paypal.com.
Here is my button code
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"> <!-- Identify your business so that you can collect the payments. --> <input type="hidden" name="business" value="myemail.com"> <!-- Specify a Subscribe button. --> <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick-subscriptions"> <!-- Identify the subscription. --> <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Alice's Weekly Digest"> <input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="DIG Weekly"> <!-- Set the terms of the regular subscription. --> <input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD"> <input type="hidden" name="a3" value="5.00"> <input type="hidden" name="p3" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="t3" value="M"> <!-- Display the payment button. --> <input type="image" name="submit" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_subscribe_LG.gif" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online"> <img alt="" border="0" width="1" height="1" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" > </form>
Basiclly the same code from the example, which does work until I encrypt it, then I get the error I listed above, however I dont get no problems with my "buy now" encrypted buttons.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks
