[thelist] I agree to terms with a PayPal button

Sat Jan 15 10:38:47 CST 2011

Our code is like this:

In the head:
<head>

<script>
//"Accept terms" form submission- By Dynamic Drive
//For full source code and more DHTML scripts, visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com
//This credit MUST stay intact for use
var checkobj
function agreesubmit(el){
checkobj=el
if (document.all||document.getElementById){
for (i=0;i<checkobj.form.length;i++){  //hunt down submit button
var tempobj=checkobj.form.elements[i]
if(tempobj.type.toLowerCase()=="submit")
tempobj.disabled=!checkobj.checked
}
}
}
function defaultagree(el){
if (!document.all&&!document.getElementById){
if (window.checkobj&&checkobj.checked)
return true
else{
alert("Please read/accept terms to submit form")
return false
}
}
}
</script>
</head>

In the body:

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post" 
onSubmit="return defaultagree(this)">
<input name="agreecheck" type="checkbox" onClick="agreesubmit(this)"><b>I agree 
to the <a href="TOS.shtm" target="_blank">Terms of Service</a></b><br>
                                  <input type="hidden" name="cmd" 
value="_xclick">
                                  <input type="hidden" name="business" 
value=yourPayPaladdress at some.com>
                                  <input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1">
                                  <input type="hidden" name="currency_code" 
value="USD">
                                  <input type="hidden" name="tax" value="0">
                                  <center><input type="submit" 
src="images/x-click-but02.gif" border="0" name="submit" value="PayPal Payments" 
alt="Donate with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!" disabled></center>
</form>

The button is from PayPal ... use yours.

Works fine.

Good luck,
David

This is the same code that I grabbed and tested yesterday.  Again the problem is 
that I don't know how to modify it so that it grays out the PayPal button rather 
than a submit button.  What Mark emailed back was/is door #2.  I'm sure that I 
can redirect to a page with a paypal button, but not sure how to redirect 
directly to paypal.  I don't want to force the buyer to go through an extraneous 
extra page if avoidable. Maybe a variation of what Mark suggested is  the 
solution.  I'm sure there's an ajaxy way to expose a hidden field once you've 
clicked on "I agree" as well.
