I've created PayPal buttons in my iweb 09 site and they work succesfullyl on macs but fail on PCs. Meaning when clients go on my website they can successfully register for my couses and pay if they are on a mac. However if they are on a PC they get the following message.... 'last action cannot be completed..' Can anyone please help. by the grace of God -- i need an answer.

Hi,
how did you integrate the Paypal button? Did you use a 3rd party software? If so, which one?
Did you see this one: http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWebBusinesssolutions.html
Let us know,

  • IWeb not publishing PayPal button widget

    As per Burns Media (see below). I have taken the proper steps to insert a PayPal button. However the button does not show up on the published site. I've done this in the past and it did work but not now. I have the latest update to iWeb and running OSX 6.4.2 Is there a problem with these updates or am I just missing something?
    Thanks for your help!

    Burns Media Posted this: You can certainly use PayPal on your iWeb site, and it's fairly easy. You would indeed use the HTML Widget - first, log in to your PayPal account (or create one if you don't have one) and follow the steps to create a new button (Buy Now, Pay Now, Gift Certificate, etc.) When you've finished making the button, the last step gives you some HTML code to copy and paste into the HTML Widget. Copy the code from the PayPal site, in iWeb drag the HTML Snippet to your page and in the box that pops up paste the code. Hit Apply and you're done! When you publish the site, visitors can click your "Buy Now" box and be taken to PayPal to buy.

    I think this is very similar to the instructions you posted, but here is a visual demonstration showing how to add PayPal to an iWeb site

  • Paypal button in iWeb site

    any idea how to introduce a PayPal payment button into an iWeb site. Paypal give a section of HTML but i don't know how to apply it to the site i am creating for commercial use.

    Here's how I got a paypal button on my site at:
    http://www.rowan-cottage.co.uk/Site/ShopBlog/ShopBlog.html
    Go to Paypal and create your button. You'll get to a page with all the HTML needed. Copy this HTML.
    Open a text box on your page the size of the button eg, 62 px by 31 px.
    Type in the box some recognisable, unique text, eg, PaypalHTML, and change the font size of it so that's it fits in the tiny text box. You can horizontally centre the text or position it left or right, but don't vertically align it otherwise the text box changes into a png. You want it to remain a text box.
    Publish.
    Open the page in your text/HTML editor.
    Find and replace the text 'PaypalHTML' with the actual Paypal HTML.
    That's it. That way there's no alignment problems and it goes where you want it to.
    You use the same principle with banners served by other parties, scripts etc. See my links page for more examples:

    I hope that helps.

I have read posts for other versions, and I cannot find any kind of HTML editor, or HTML Widget to use in this version I have. I have tried just pasting in the code right into the page, but when I publish the site, I see the code, not the PayPal button.
    HELP!!!!! I need to get this finished up and please do not tell me that I need to buy another version! This is Apple software we are talking about! Where's the HTML editor??????!!!
    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am DESPERATE!!!!! What to do?!
    thanks in advance

    Short of switching to something useful and much better for web development: [Coda|http://www.panic.com/coda> for instance, here is a tutorial for doing exactly what you need to do:

  • Creating paypal buttons in iWeb

    i have copy and pasted the html code onto my web page in iWeb but when i publish the page the button is not generated...why? what am i doing wrong? It's the same procedure that I used to create a "visa buy now button" before. Also having the same problem using html from another site that want to generate a cartoon on my site. Wassup!?

    If that's the case, then create a simple HTML page with the Paypal code.
    Then paste this line in the HTML snippet:
    +<object width="75" height="50" data="/dotMacID/paypal.html" type="text/html" standby="Paypal" title="Paypal"></object>+
    Instead of object you can also use iframe.
    Added:
    [Here's my PayPal button|http://web.mac.com/wyodor/paypal.html]. Look at the source to see how it's done.
    Save the source and put your own code into it. Otherwise I receive your donations.

  • PayPal Button missing after upload on iWeb 8

    I've created a page on iWeb with a PayPal button.  I created the button on PayPal and added it to my page using the HTML widget and it shows up fine in iWeb.  When I upload it to my server the button and look at the page on the web it shows this message:
    When I spoke with my server provider they said they could not see the HTML code.  I'm not sure why it's not uploading. 
    A publishing error message also appears after I upload the page:
    Although I got this message all my pages were uploaded on my site and they looked fine except for the area where I placed the PayPal button.
    Any ideas how I can get my PayPal button to upload and work?
    Thank you

    I'm hosting my site through goDaddy.  This is the page in question:  http://dqtrs.com/DQtrs/Order.html
    I uploaded the entire site again and now the PayPal button is showing fine and working but a few of the other jpgs that I use for links are missing.  This is how it looks in iWeb:
    But this is what is posting now:
    At least I know the PayPal button works now.  Just need to figure out why the other files aren't loading properly.  They were prior when the PayPal button wasn't uploading correctly.
    Thanks for you time,

  • HTML Snippet customized paypal buttons not showing correctly when published

    Hi, My customized paypal buttons that i but on my iweb site using html snippets are not displaying correctly. They work in Opera but not in firefox or safari. Please take a look and tell me what you think might be wrong. (all the links are working it's just not showing the graphics correctly (apart from in Opera)
    http://www.alisonbrent.com/ShopTableLamps.html
    Also I've just noticed that when i return to my iweb application (after closing in down) the Html snippets aren't there anymore just an outline, just like they appear in safari?
    Many thanks,
    Ali
    P.S

    Bonjour
    You inserted an image inside the ShopTable_Lampsfiles folder but it's is deleted every time you publish your page
    1) Create an new folder named Paypal in your root folder:
    FTP: With a FTP software (like Cyberduck) create a new folder in your server root folder
    MobileMe: just make an new folder inside the Folder Sites (iDisk > Web > Sites)
    Name this Folder "paypal"
    2) insert your image "addtocartbutton.png" inside this paypal folder
    Get the new URL of your image , something like
    http://www.alisonbrent.com/paypal/addtocartbutton.png
    3) Paste this URL in your codes, replace
    src="http://www.alisonbrent.com/ShopTable_Lampsfiles/addtocartbutton.png"
    by
    src="http://the/new/URL/of/addtocartbutton.png"

  • PayPal buttons appearing on detail page

    I've added Paypal links using the HTML widget to a photo page in iWeb. If you click on the photo to enlarge it, all the Paypal buttons (from the other photos) show up on the enlarged image. Is there a way to avoid this or set up another kind of page so that just the image selected shows up? Thanks.

    You will need some additional javascript code in an HTML snippet to get what you want. Cyclosaurus has posted a solution to that.
    Here are some topics covering the problem:

    You'll need to study Cyclosaurus's posts and his sample pages to get the widget code to use.

  • PAYPAL BUTTONS DISAPPEARED!

    I published a modified webpage that contains PAYPAL Drop Down Boxes and Buttons to a local folder and then uploaded them to my site using cyberduck.
    If I look at the page in the local folder is displays correctly, but on the website all the paypal info an buttons are missing. I republished several times but it still does not work.
    The site was originally created in the older version of iWeb and I recently upgraded.
    Anyone help???

    Well DUH, @ graffiti....Don't ask why I put Reunion (another of my programs) I have no clue and obviously did not catch my error...I'm managing my web site
    with Contribute. When the web site was new, I put the PayPal buttons on, using Contribute but now the PayPal buttons do not work. Errased them, closed
    Contribute, then tried to reinstall....no luck, they are there, they just don't work. Any help out there?

  • IWeb, Paypal and GoDaddy problem

    Anyone know the answer to this one. I have built a website for selling products. I used paypals site to generate "Buy Now" buttons for various items and pasted them into a HTML snippet in widgets. I uploaded the site using Cyberduck onto Godaddy (host). On iWeb, the paypal buttons look correct but on the web they are a window to GoDaddy Market Place. I have cleared the cache and no difference, I have also used Firefox and still the same so I guess it is not just what I am seeing but what is really up there. Any ideas, guys? I am new to all this so apologise if this is something really stupid!

    Hi Leo
    The snippet code is:
    <form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
    <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
    <input type="hidden" name="hostedbuttonid" value="6223461">
    <input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/enGB/i/btn/btn_buynowCCLG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online.">
    </form>
    and it is the same on all web pages that I have pasted it to. A typical page is:

  • PayPal button

    I've added a PayPal button to my iWeb site using the HTML widget.  It displays fine in iWeb but when I upload it to my service provider the button shows up with an "Oops!!!" message.  When I spoke with PayPal and service provider they could not see the code in the script.  How can I get the button to work?

    Thank you Roddy.  It shows in Activity that my order button is missing (

  • Problem with an HTML snippit and PayPal button - cant figure this one out?

    Hello Mac people. We are really good with these things but this one has got us completely foxed.
    We've done a tribute website in iWeb 08 for a friend and his family that were tragically murdered in November 2006 - the address is www.yemi.co.uk
    We are trying to add a PayPal Donate button to the Charity Page.
    Simple right? We went to our PayPal account, set up the button, previewed it (perfect), copied the code, pasted it into an iWeb HTML snippet window, clicked Apply and the PayPal button appeared on the page... Great, thats sorted right? Nope.
    What happens after we publish to our .MAC account is that the PayPal button, when clicked, tries to load the entire PayPal page into the frame / area within the actual PayPal button, which is a tiny, on the iWeb page.
    What we want it to do is just link to PayPal in a new window.
    Tried everything we can think of to solve it including PayPal technical service, .MAC assistance etc... 3 days later we admit defeat!
    Anyone have a clue what we've done wrong? Much appreciated.
    Regards from the UK
    [email protected]

    Hi, just a quick update. We managed to solve this one by adding this to the first line of code that PayPal generates after it has been pasted into the Snippit window: target="newFormWindow" - it forces the page to open in a new window and gets round the problem we were having.
    Hope this helps somebody else out in the future. Thanks.

  • How do I add a PayPal button to a page in my site?

    My client has a PayPal account and they would like me to add a button that enables visitors to click the button and submit donations.
    Is this something that is supported by Muse?

    Yes - you can add a PayPal button using arbitrary HTML.
    Create the donation page in Muse. If desired, you can also create a second confirmation page, that thanks the visitor for their donation after it is submitted.
    Publish both pages.
    Log into your PayPal account on their website. Use their system to generate the donation payment button.
    Copy the source code for the button.
    Return to Muse and go to Object > Insert HTML..., paste the code in the HTML Code area and Click OK.
    Position the HTML block where you want the button to appear on the page.
    Publish the page again and click the button to test that the button works as expected. It should jump from the Muse donation page to the PayPal page where the visitor can enter their donation into your client's account.
    You can style the PayPal page to look more like your site's design, which creates a more seamless appearance. If desired, you can also configure the PayPal payment page to redirect to the confirmation/thank you page you created in step 1 after processing the transaction.
