You need a script to handle the data that PayPal sends via the POST such as <a target="_blank" href="http://www.smartdd.com/" rel="nofollow">SmartDD</a>. Just a simple PayPal button isn't capable of doing that. -Frank David:

Is there some custom code which has to be added to the Paypal button? Nice to know Frank but you didn't explain what has to go into OTHER Paypal buttons to override the IPN Default.

Is there some custom code which has to be added to the Paypal button?

Can hardly wait for version 3, that is going to make such a difference to so many people. We can all moan about Ebay decision to ban digital downloads, but thankfully most of us in the UK have the ability to adapt. In some third world countries, like India, the decision really did end livelihoods. The postage costs from places like that to their customers in the US were to expensive for them to transfer their data to physical discs to sell. It always seems to be those that can least afford it that are hardest hit. More power to you Frank, you probably do not even appreciate the many ways your products and services are changing people's lives for the better.

Love the fact v3 will automate the whole CD/DVD delivery by tying in with Kunaki etc. Can't wait to check it out. Cheers...Graham Hi Frank
