ok. makes sense. I was just concerned about possible risk being able to see the reference code as an extension to the main page.

Can’t help it….I come from a risk management background so I’m always looking for the “proverbial trap door”.

@Brett Schaefer Do you mean the lower left? If yes, it's suppose to be there. That's how HTML works. The reason you don't see it when you mouse over other parts is because it uses CSS.

in essence you see the php reference code for the order address attached to the main url when keying over the add to cart button and add to cart text. Hope that helps.

The paypal address that is used in the first line of the version1.php.
What happens is that the code around the add to cart button references the correctly. Problem is that when you key over the “add to cart” button or the “add to cart” text then you can see the following:

http://mywebaddress/ at the lower right hand corner of Firefox.

@Brett Schaefer Which address do you and where do you see it?

I got the code to work. The problem was such a small one. I had forgotten that when you embed the php code in an html script that you need to retitle the page with a php extension. That solved all but one issue. When I key over the “add to cart” button you can see the address with the at the end of it.

Any ideas on how to hide that?

@Brett Schaefer The PHP file doesn't get uploaded. You copy the contents of the file and then paste it where you want the button to show. IF the page extention that you paste the code into is not PHP then you will need to make the page able to parse PHP. Ask your host how to do this or Google for it. If you Google, try "html parse php" without the quotes. Garrie
