PayPal links in Flash5?

[Damnitologist]

After looking through the boards for this, I'm surprised I haven't found a similar question.

Does anyone happen to know how to set up a PayPal link within an .swf file? In hypertext, there are a number of hidden input types which I can't get to work in a flashfile. Macromedia.com's explanation of hidden fields didn't actually tell me much about this.

The necessary fields are:

<FORM ACTION="https://secure.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" METHOD="POST">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="cmd" VALUE="_xclick">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="business" VALUE="BusinessInc">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="return" VALUE="whatever.com">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="undefined_quantity" VALUE="1">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="item_name" VALUE="Product">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="item_number" VALUE="123">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="amount" VALUE="19.95"><INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="shipping" VALUE="2.95">
</FORM>

How do you get the hidden fields to work in Flash?

Thanks in advance....

I have an fla example I can send you.

All you have to do is create input text fields name each field a "name" parameter from the PayPal form and fill the field with the "value" parameter from the form.

Then load the variables using the post method to the paypal site.

That almost makes sense. I guess if you can EMail me the .fla, I can figure out exactly what you're talking about.

Thanks in advance....
