I am using the paypal shopping cart to sell items. This works yay.
What I want is to have the ability to supply an email address and a comment to send to a third party after everything goes though. I could do this by having paypal send them to a page with the form after they finish the payment but that does not flow properly.
What would be best would to have the form on the shopping cart page and that gets submitted and stored though the whole checkout process then that info gets sent to the page paypal opens when you successfully complete the order.
Does anyone know how I could do this? I have been looking on paypals docs all day and havnt found anything. I hope it is possible but I am starting to think it isnt.
If this is not possible, does anyone have a good design idea that I could somehow put in to have this functionality?
yes ... I usually save the Cart and things like email address and a comment in the session until the order is confirmed (i.e. Paypal returns success), then I create/save the order.
no no like I am using the paypal shopping cart, not a custom shopping cart so I dont have access to the session cart information or anything so I cant put this form in the view cart area at all. Thats why I was wondering if there was a paypal thing to be able to add a form to the view cart area.
