Paypal Multiple Items

[wemustdesign]

I am creating a site using Paypal IPN.

 

I have searched the net but can't find much on multiple items.

 

How do I send multiple items to Paypal rather than just the total for products bought?

Just number the items... item_number1, item_name1, item_number2, item_name2 etc.

Also make sure that you're submitting your system as a cart with

<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_cart" />

 

and not

<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick" />

well this is what I am using but I am getting an error from paypal saying theres nothing in my cart. Is it my code?

 

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">

<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_cart">

<input type="hidden" name="upload" value="1">

<input type="hidden" name="business" value="[email protected]">

<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="GBP">

 

<input type="hidden" name="item_number1" value="item number">

<input type="hidden" name="item_name1" value="Item Name">

<input type="hidden" name="amount1" value="20">

 

<input type="hidden" name="item_number2" value="item number">

<input type="hidden" name="item_name2" value="Item Name">

<input type="hidden" name="amount2" value="20">

 

<input type="image" src="http://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but01.gif" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">

</form>

add another underscore.

 

change item_number1 to item_number_1
