I haven't looked at the pay pal form but it may be possible to do this.

What you need to find is where the form is being sent to. You will find this in the HTML for the pay pal form in the submit action.

second you will need set the variables by finding out what vars sent in the HTML form are named. You will need to name your text boxes the so that they corelate to the names of the HTML form. If there are any hidden variables you will have to set those with actionscripts.


Thats about it other than looking at the HTML form to see if it uses get or post.

Try
on (release) {
loadVariablesNum("yourScriptURL", 0, "POST") ;
getURL("yourRedirectPageURL") ;
}

I am fairly sure loadVariablesNum is not supported.
