I am designing a site to sell stationery and have created a column called "Personalization". In the Add to Cart bindings, I added the column as an editable text box. I then added it as one of the columns to be displayed in the cart.php page. It works fine on the cart.php and confirm.php pages, but gets lost when sent to PayPal.

I tried adding "personalization" to [Full Details] as I saw mentioned in another post, and added that to the cart.php page, but that didn't work either.

I know PayPal Standard will allow for personalization and/or color choices to be submitted b/c I am currently using the PayPal shopping cart w/ PayPal Standard and it works fine. It's just getting lost somewhere between eCart and PayPal. Any ideas?

Add it to the item name hidden form element on the confirm page or as one of the two options fields paypal provides. That should pass it along to paypal.

Thank you, Ray!!!!! That worked perfectly and was the last step I needed to get this site done.
