View Cart Button -- how do you create it ?

After redirecting a customer to my site using the "Continue Shopping" button, a user should have the option of returning to the cart without adding anything. This would seem to require a "View Cart" button. However, I can't find anyway to generate this button code -- does PayPal have something to help with this ?

Sorry, this is not working out for you.  I've provided as much free info as I can and the tips do work.  Perhaps if you read the tips again, you'll figure things out.   Another option is to contact a Developer.  These folks work one-on-one with their clients.  You can find a list of Developers here.

I'm with you! Not having any luck with simply using my own button and having the ViewCart work! And i sure don't see where you're supposed to be able to change the PayPal ViewCart button to a custom one on their site. Bummer!

 

I've tried it using their code and my own link to my custom button, but I shouldn't have to place this with every item on the page, as it directs. Doesn't anyone have a solution?Smiley Sad

Skier - thank you so much for your road map to the View Cart button generator.  Actually, it was probably more of a turn signal but, at the time I was looking, I didn't understand how it worked.  I was so accustomed to the old system's code. 

 

This thing generates the longest encryption code I've ever seen.  But it works. 

 

It would be nice if the system had the View Cart button generator available on the same level as the Add to Cart button generator, rather than as a subset of the Add to Cart. 

 

Also, I apologize for my remark.  My frustration is no excuse for being so snotty.

 

Again, thank you for your help.
