I want to change the drop down menu into 3 images S, M, L so the user can select an image instead of having to select from dropdown. is this possible
It seems you need radio buttons instead of a drop down menu !
Use CSS to display each radio button as an image. You might need some javascript too.
Try this plugin http://www.thheuer.com/2011/10/jquery-plugins-image-radio-buttons/

I am OK at html but new to PayPal.
I want to be able to use a Paypal button directly from my site without having to use a third party shopping cart.
The only problem I have is that I am in the UK and Paypal do not offer postage/shipping options here dependent on where you are shipping to. So for instance PayPal's standard buttons would not allow me to charge different postage whether I was sending the product to the US or just a nearby town.
They allow you to add postage/shipping dependent on the value of the cart only.
So I have been looking at the html variables available for the buttons here https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/paypal-payments-standard/integration-guide/Appx_websitestandard_htmlvariables/#id08A6HH0D0TA and at posts on Stackoverflow
I wondered if there was any way of combining the option value.. and ="handling_cart" to do this – please see my working below.
So you would click the add to cart button and from the drop down select the shipping area e.g. UK, Europe, Rest of World. The handling charge on the cart would then reflect the option you chose. Instead of the handling cart value being NNNN it would be the value specified for the option, so for Europe £5.00.

Secondary question: this html gets a straight error from PayPal, probably – among other things - because I am still calling it a hosted button (I think I might need to remove this and somehow link it to the Merchant ID???).
Note I have altered the hosted button id here as I was concerned about security - I might not need to be.
Many Thanks
Allyson
Your hosted button is not formatted correctly to handle the shipping drop down. Also you cannot modify a hosted button it will not work. I have created some sample non-hosted button code as an example of what will work if the shipping calculator is not available in your region.
You will have to update the business value to reflect your merchant id or your email address to test the button code.

And I'm geting Error on Sandbox.paypal page
"PayPal cannot process this transaction because of a problem with the seller's website. Please contact the seller directly to resolve this problem."
I'm testing on Localhost.
The button is generated on sandbox seller's account.
I'm trying to do something like the following in order for the user to select their recurring subscription plan.
I keep getting the following error in PayPal when trying to submit this form:
'Invalid Regular period. You must specify valid values for the A3, P3, and T3 parameters for a subscription.'
I've specified the A3, P3, and T3 params in the form, so I'm not sure what's going on. Can someone help? Thanks in advance!

This code ended up working fine. I was running into a caching issue, which is why I kept receiving the error. :)
I have the following form:

<!--input type="hidden" name="output" value="embed"-->
<button type="submit">Guidami</button>
<p class="Didascalia">Powered by Google</p>
</form>
It opens a new window with the map and the directions on the left side as usual.
What I would like to do is to open this content in an iframe that I have in the same page but
if I symply change the target to the iframe name, I get an error (This content cannot be displayed in a frame. To help protect the security of information you enter into this website, the publisher of this content does not allow it to be displayed in a frame.)
if I also un-comment the output=embed parameter, then only the map is shown with the route but no listing of directions
Does any-one know how to do this?
I'm creating a simple checkout for a client where the visitor can check out via PayPal. Currently, my HTML form looks like this:
<form action="https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">

<label for="quantity">Quantity:</label>
<input type="text" name="quantity" value="1" id="quantity" class="numeric" size="2" maxlength="2" />
<input type="submit" value="Buy now with PayPal or credit/debit card" class="button" />
</fieldset>
</form>
As you can see, a simply form that passes a product's details to PayPal for checkout. However, I'm having a problem with custom options, namely option_name1, option_selection1 etc.
How can I pass custom information such as selected size and colour et al to PayPal for the client—and administrator—to view? As currently, testing the above with the PayPal sandbox feature I can't see any where anything pertaining to custom options.
option_selectX is the name of the parameter in the IPN message. What you'll want to add to the button is this:
<input type="hidden" name="on0" value="Size">Size
<select name="os0">
<option value="Option 1">Option 1 $10.00</option>
<option value="Option 2">Option 2 $12.00</option>
<option value="Option 3">Option 3 $13.00</option>
</select>
<input type="hidden" name="option_select0" value="Option 1">
<input type="hidden" name="option_amount0" value="10.00">
<input type="hidden" name="option_select1" value="Option 2">
<input type="hidden" name="option_amount1" value="12.00">
<input type="hidden" name="option_select2" value="Option 3">
<input type="hidden" name="option_amount2" value="13.00">
Just add 'on1' and 'os1' for colours, etc.
You can create a static button to have a look at the generated code through https://www.paypal.com/buttonfactory
I had trouble passing custom variables as well, and found out that it was the naming convention that I was getting wrong (probably due to outdated docs).
I had been trying to use option_name1 and option_selection, and that wasn't working. After I was this post, I tried option_select0 and option_amount0.
But it wasn't until I finally found this page https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_pdn_xclick_options_help_outside that I realized it should really be on0 and os0 as the option name and option value variable names.
I hope this saves someone some time!
If I recall correctly, the custom options you're referring to are simply passed back by PayPal to the callback. The premise being you then tie that particular payment to a particular order which would then have all the options you require specified.
I'm not sure if you can get PayPal to do anything with them their end.
Additionally, I don't know how much it has changed, but in my experience the PayPal sandbox can differ significantly from real PayPal, worth noting.
