How do I control what is displaying in PayPal?

Hello,

How and where do I control what is displaying in PayPal at checkout? in my confirm.php there is a display code what need to display in PalPal:

<?php //WA eCart Validation
if ((WA_eCart_FormatNumber($ag_Store->DisplayInfo("Price") - (($ag_Store->DisplayInfo("Price")/$ag_Store->TotalColumn("TotalPrice")) * $ag_Store->GetDiscounts()), false, 2) > 0)) {
?>
<input type="hidden" name="amount_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="amount_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo WA_eCart_FormatNumber($ag_Store->DisplayInfo("Price") - (($ag_Store->DisplayInfo("Price")/$ag_Store->TotalColumn("TotalPrice")) * $ag_Store->GetDiscounts()), false, 2) ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="item_name_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="item_name_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo $ag_Store->DisplayInfo("Name") ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="item_number_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="item_number_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo $ag_Store->DisplayInfo("ID") ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="quantity_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="quantity_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo $ag_Store->DisplayInfo("Quantity") ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="on0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="on0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="os0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="os0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="on1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="on1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="os1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="os1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="" />
<?php //WA eCart Validation

I need to display instead of the Product ID all the options my visitor have picked in the shopping cart, such as size, time and date they have picked in the checkout.

Is there another page or script that control the display and how do I control that? How can I pass the Product Size, Time of an Event or any important info to the PayPal so that the store owner knows what people are buying?

Thank you

I just realized I don't have pp_cancel.php, pp_checkout_failure.php, pp_checkout_success.php, pp_confirm.php. Is that OK/normal? I am using PayPal Standard.

paypal standard does not include the pp_ pages, those are used by paypal express checkout.

these elements:
<input type="hidden" name="on0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="on0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="os0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="os0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="on1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="on1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="os1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="os1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="" />

are used for passing options. the on0_... and on1_.. elements are used for the option name. the os0_... and os1_... are used for the option value.

paypal only allows for 2 options, so you will need to pass Size and Color as one option, use the bindings panel to set the value of the os0_... element to the Size and Color cart columns.

add the other column bindings to the os1_... element. You can add labels to the name elements for the options.

Just like that:

<input type="hidden" name="on0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="on0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo $ag_Store->DisplayInfo("productSize") ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="os0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="os0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo $ag_Store->DisplayInfo("productSize") ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="on1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="on1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo $ag_Store->DisplayInfo("productColor") ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="os1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="os1_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="<?php echo $ag_Store->DisplayInfo("productColor") ?>"" />

well, the on0 and on1_ elements should be a lable:

<input type="hidden" name="on0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" id="on0_<?php echo $ag_Store_Index+1; ?>" value="Product Size" />

Hi Jason,

It did work for me and the info is transferring to PayPal. On the other hand I had tree options and I did created a third group of options on3... and os3... and it is working just fine.

Thank you for your help.
