I have placed a Paypal button using html code supplied on page of Webeasy 8 professional software. The button will not open to the paypal form page. Error message "publisher will not open page in frames" I need somethin to automatically open this button in new page or something to that effect. Browsers IE and Mozilla same

Hi Joe, :wave:

Can you provide me the source of the button?

 

[joetew]

The source is html code provided by my secure paypal account. We have done this before months ago and it has always worked. But apparantly pay pal added another layer of security to eliminate opening their secure windows within a frame (webeasy design format)

Hi Joe,

Is that a Buy Now button?

You say you want to to open this in a new page. Why not try this...

@ ticket.ieasysite.com - WebEasy How to Add a PayPal Button

1. Go to www.paypal.com
2. Login to your PayPal account
3. Press the Merchant Services tab
4. Press the Buy Now Button
5. Fill out the fields to configure your button
6. Press Save Changes
7. Press Select Code
8. Right-click the code, select Copy (or press CTRL+C)
9. Open your website in Web Easy
10. Go to Insert -> Text -> Plain Text
11. Click the part of the page you wish to add the button
12. Double-click the textbox; type in something like "PayPal Button"
13. Select the textbox so it has the grey-dotted borders
14. Go to Tools -> custom Script Assistant (or press CTRL+J)
15. Right-click in Contents window, press Paste (or press CTRL+V)

Note: Don't change any of the other settings in the Custom Script Assistant window.

16. Press Ok

Hopefully this helps :smile:

I thought I made this clear I have done all that and know how to put a buy now button on web easy. The problem is with paypal not allowing the clicker on the button to open the secure payment page. paypal says through an error message that it can't display the page in frames (webeasy design format) My question is how can I break this button out of a frame so it will open up in a new window to my paypal payment page

If you would provide the code we would adjust it...

Anyway... in a nutshell all you do is add target="_blank" to the form...

 

[joetew]

Thanks I think I tried this with no success, but I'll try it again and see if it works

You can also try target="_top" if it doesn't like "_blank".

 

[joetew]

It doesn't like blank That is what I had written in the original code. I'll try this new code but in the mean time take a look at the site with the button page so you can see what's happening Home "transoms" page Thanks

Hi Joe,

Thank you for the link.

This is how the code looks now:

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
		<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
		<input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="###########">
		<input type="image" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!">
		<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
		</form> <a target="_blank" href="https://paypal.com...">

(note I changed the button ID)

We will be changing specifically this line:

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">

Lets try a few different things... First

Target=_blank

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post" target="_blank">

If that does not work lets try some JS:
onclick="this.form.target='_blank';"

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post" onsubmit="this.form.target='_blank';">

(just replace the original code with that provided, upload and test)

Let us know if those work :thumb:
