Someone please help!!

 

I generated a PayPal Smart Button,  copied and pasted its html codes into my WordPress page. 

 

I previewed my page (click here).   The Smart Button was there; and it was clickable.  Anything looked fine.

 

However, after I published the page (click here), only the two lines of text was there, the actual button was not shown. 

 

The generated codes are as follows:

<div id="smart-button-container">
<div style="text-align: center"><label for="description">Your Name: </label><input type="text" name="descriptionInput" id="description" maxlength="127" value=""></div>
<p id="descriptionError" style="visibility: hidden; color:red; text-align: center;">Please enter a description</p>
<div style="text-align: center"><label for="amount">Amount to Pay: </label><input name="amountInput" type="number" id="amount" value=""><span> NZD</span></div>
<p id="priceLabelError" style="visibility: hidden; color:red; text-align: center;">Please enter a price</p>
<div id="invoiceidDiv" style="text-align: center; display: none;"><label for="invoiceid"> </label><input name="invoiceid" maxlength="127" type="text" id="invoiceid" value=""></div>
<p id="invoiceidError" style="visibility: hidden; color:red; text-align: center;">Please enter an Invoice ID</p>
<div style="text-align: center; margin-top: 0.625rem;" id="paypal-button-container"></div>
</div>

function initPayPalButton() {
var description = document.querySelector('#smart-button-container #description');
var amount = document.querySelector('#smart-button-container #amount');
var descriptionError = document.querySelector('#smart-button-container #descriptionError');

var elArr = [description, amount];

invoiceidDiv.style.display = "block";
}

var purchase_units = [];
purchase_units[0] = {};
purchase_units[0].amount = {};

return event.value.length > 0;
}

if(invoiceid.value !== '') {

}
},

createOrder: function (data, actions) {
return actions.order.create({
purchase_units: purchase_units,
});
},

onApprove: function (data, actions) {
return actions.order.capture().then(function (orderData) {

// Full available details
console.log('Capture result', orderData, JSON.stringify(orderData, null, 2));

// Show a success message within this page, e.g.
const element = document.getElementById('paypal-button-container');
element.innerHTML = '';
element.innerHTML = '<h3>Thank you for your payment!</h3>';

// Or go to another URL: actions.redirect('thank_you.html');

});
},

onError: function (err) {
console.log(err);
}
}).render('#paypal-button-container');
}
initPayPalButton();
