    Hey everyone I am making my own site hopefully it will be up sooner or later, and I am wanting to put the links that some sites have that allow you to buy things off of there sites via paypal. Such as this page:

    http://www.gaiahq.com/

    But I want it to be like I said a paypal link, so that when they click "buy" it takes them straight to paypal showing them the price and and allowing them to log in and have the funds transferred to my paypal account. Then have it auto link back to a page on my site so that they can find out how to send me a testimonial so I can post it to my site. Now obviously I do not need the full code for the page I can handle that all I neeed is:

    1. Code to make button link to payment page of paypal, so funds can be transferred to me.
    2. Code to auto link back to my site once payment has been made.

    Anyone know how to do this?

    Umm, you can set this up via paypal. They have a section for it, like a PayPal checkout...lemme go look.

    It's called a payflow link...just search it up on PayPal's help o_O

    Whey were you asking me about nps sales if you have you own website and understand fully the situation of buying/selling?

    Somewhere, lah.
    It's either a dead-simple link or feature provided by paypal, or some complicated use of paypal's API (if it has any)

    Thanks all I think i actually figured it out and no to_old this info actually wasnt for me, a guy i lived with named sam is working on learning all the html he can, he competes with it at school and that was one of the things he needed to learn so he asked me to see what i could find. And i really wouldnt want to sell it again anyways, I enjoy neopets and would use it all on my shop and getting into a better mall and making even more np, lol, its one of the things i guess ill never get to old for, neopets, go figure lmao :lol:

    ANOTHER QUESTION if i make a page and have a text field and i want it to be able to send the text in the field to my personal email, how would I do this. Like say if i made a site with usernames and passwords how would I go about making it so that when new users fill out the sign up it would go to my mail so i could add it to a server?
