Hi,
I keep getting this message when clicking on my buttons. I have a few saved buttons (a Buy Now and Donation button). When clicked, both give the same error from paypal. I mean even the donation button is super simple to setup. I just copied the html form after creating it but still no luck. I am really confused because the donation button is open for the user to enter an amount.. so I am not even sending an amount over. Even the email link for the Donation button gives this same error.
Example: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FUNS3T87V3M6
Please help!

This usually happens when you include a currency symbol or a comma in the price.
