Hello:

I want to be able to "embed" PayPal cart buttons in a Flash movie.

The HTML coding for the cart buttons is included within <FORM> tags, which Flash does not support in the Render Text as HTML option (like <a>, <b>, etc.)

What to do? maybe I could put the HTML coding in a TXT or XML file and pass through to that from Flash. (?) Thank you.

Its easier than you think, just go to http://www.webassist.com/Products/ProductResults.asp

Download WA PayPal eCommerce Snap-ins for Flash

Now open flash, and the flash buttons are now in your library, just drag them to stage, u can modify them any way you want.

Better yet, you can also download video tutorial from the same link. It is very easy, I was amazed when I found out about this.

Good luck

Does anyone have the "WA PayPal eCommerce Snap-ins for Flash" and could email it to me? WA does not have it on their website any more. Thank you for the help.
