Paypal Shopping Cart

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Nov 09.2004

I have a bit of a problem in populating the Paypal shopping cart using PHP. I have emailed Paypal support without success so here goes.

The line in question is

<input type=”hidden” name=”item_name” value=<? echo “$title”;?>>

Now if $title is ” The Name of the Game” the cart only shows “The”. ie it only returns content upto the first space. Not good !!

Everywhere else on my site that I use echo the full title is returned.

Any thoughts, ideas or better still, solutions, gratefully received.

@JonaNov 09.2004 — [font=trebuchet ms]Try using the quotes in the proper places. ? [/font]

[code=php]
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="<?=$title;?>">
[/code]

[font=trebuchet ms]If that doesn't work, maybe you should list your items with underscores (_) instead of spaces in the names.[/font]
