dont know if this is the right board (paypal payment button)

The paypal only gives 10 options, i'm selling trousers from sizes 27 to 40, how do i create more options

thanks

Julie

I assume you are referring to a select menu that has options and values. While they only allow to create 10 through the button on paypal's site itself you can simply add more by editing the html they give you.

i tried that but i'm missing something in the code

see this code
<option value="34">34 £12.00</option>
<option value="35">35 £12.00</option>
<option value="36">36 £12.00</option>

i copy and paste that line and change the number 36 to 37 and i creat another option but when i save it, in the option the 37 is still 36, wont change to 37, just gives me another option with 36.

Please post the code that paypal gives you. Remove your merchantID and/or email please. You don't edit the code on the paypal site, you need to edit it in your program that you use to create your web pages.

I'm silly, i was changing the wrong number

instead i was doing this
<option value="41">40 £12.00</option>

can anyone help me please

I don't like helping impatient people. We are not here 24/7. Modify the paypal count with how you think it should look and then post it again. I've done this very same thing for other paypal buttons and it works. You did add in your merchant id back in right?

Again modify the code to how you think it should look and repost it.

Do you mean they show on your page but when selected and add to cart it don't work?
