HTML CHANGES??

[Eyezak]

Im trying to paste some HTML code that I need fror PAYPAL button. It seems
when I paste it into the file all I get is the actual instructions printed on
my web page?

Also what I noticed is the original had a line like i.e

<form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"
method="post">
<input type="image"
src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but22.gif" border="0"
name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">

when I pasted it , it changed to:


<p class=MsoNormal><form target="paypal"
action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"
method="post"></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><input type="image"
src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but22.gif"
border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with
PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!"></p>


When I insert into the HTML file I get the following


<input type="hidden" name="add" value="1">

???????????

Thanks

Copy the code and paste it into Notepad, and then copy it from Notepad into
the HTML/Code view of your page.

Kathleen;
Thanks it worked!
Does it have to do with the fact when you highlight and copy from thier
website the "HTML BUTTON" code you are also possibly coping some of the HTML
CODE to get it up on the PAYPAL site ( behind the screen display).
Inputting into notepad first , only gives u the actual text?

Thanks
Isaac

Using Notepad is a waste of time.Go get Steve Miller's Pure Text tool [1]
and with one click the problem is resolved
