Paypal recurring payments

[gerkintrigg]

Hi all.

 

I just want to know the name of the variable to tell PayPal (the stinking leviathan that it is) what my recurring payments are for.

 

It currently shows my customer a blank description field! Urgh!

 

Here's the code I have:

<form name="_xclick" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick-subscriptions">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="paypal@truro.com">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="GBP">
<input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="1">
<input type="image" src="../../furniture/buy_now_web_btn.png" border="0" name="submit" alt="Buy Now with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">
<input type="hidden" name="a3" value="3.50">
<input type="hidden" name="p3" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="t3" value="M">
<input type="hidden" name="src" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="sra" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="description" value="One month personal hosting">
</form>

 

Other than that, it works fine... any suggestions, chaps?

I believe what you are looking for is "item_name".
