Good Afternoon,
Each year our school does a raffle fundraiser where we sell ducks. Last year we added the option to purchase ducks online and it worked great! There is a drop down menu for the number of ducks and a text field for the 'Seller Family Name'. Pretty simple. Last year, the drop down menu option and the text field both came through on each online transaction detail. This year, I started with the same button used last year, added two more options to the drop down and now nothing comes through on the transaction details.

Nothing, to my knowledge, changed in the code.
What am I missing?
Current code below...

Just did a quick test of your code example, thanks for posting the code and the screen shots. You are passing all of the details to the PayPal Checkout Page - normally if you can successfully pass all of the info to the checkout screen, you will see the same details in the transaction record. I'm not seeing any errors. One thought, try removing the parenthesis from the option variable values to see if that makes a difference. If you still have the same issue, you may want to contact Tech Support for assistance.
