I can make (by using the PayPal button factory) and install Buy Now buttons on my web site. For some reason that I cannot fathom, I cannot make a cart button that works, either by using the button factory, or by writing the HTML myself. When I look at the cart, it simply says that the cart is empty. At PayPal I have a business account, I use Website Payments Standard, and so far as I can see I use exactly the same steps for the cart button that I would use for a Buy Now button. I make the web page using Visual Studio and it is only one stage up from a bare sheet It has got me utterly foxed. Where should I be looking ? I have included the HTML of the page.(I just altered a URL for security) <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
