I have been working with PayPal and Ikobo for some time. My site is based in Thailand and its not easy to get a decent merchant account here so I am stuck with Ikobo and a PayPal account registered in the UK.
I have hundred of flower products on my site they all have upgrade links.
I hate having to make thousands of PayPal forms with each product and their upgrades.
Is there a way i can make a generic form so that a customer can just add the product number, add the price theirself and select from a drop down list if they would like to add an upgrade option (increse the price).
This would be a very simple peice of shopping cart "software" right?
I am not a programmer.
Is there some java script that i could get for free or cheap that i could modify to do this?
I cant believe that i have to make thousands of forms when all i need is a pop up window from the product description page where the customer can just enter in the price and product number.
I have just about had it with Ikobo and now PayPal have the option for cusomers not to have to set up a PayPal account i would like to go back to PP as my primary payment method, they seem to be getting their act together.

PayPal "Add to Cart" buttonca can be dynamically generated so you could database your product informatin and generate PayPal buttons "on the fly". If you know how to program the database, this scripting is pretty easy.
