    Is there anyway to get the Paypal Donate button to work in a HTML box? When i paste the code into the HTML box the image seems to appear fine, but i can’t actually select the button, so I don’t get redirected to the website where people can donate. Any help would be much appreciated

    I am trying to setup the same thing and was hoping to find an answer here and found your question, I don’t think you can do it using that method. At the PayPal site it says to paste the code into a web page to make it work. So I created a web page pasted it in, uploaded the web page to my web hosting service, then created a link in MobiOne to my web page at my web hosting service and that works, only thing is you a web site. The only other thing I can think of is if PayPal can give the button’s code in a JavaScript format.

    Still researching !

    Some time ago I managed to put a paypal ‘buy it now’ button on a page just to see if I could. I put the code into the html file after the application files were generated. If I remember right I put a marker where I wanted the button to go then slotted the code in there. I remember running it on my iPhone and it took me to the paypal mobile website to make a payment so it must have worked, it was a web app though so I don’t know if it will work in a native app. Worth a try maybe.

    Just before I left for work I messed with this for a few minutes and I think I found a possible solution but need to check when I get home.

    I downloaded a PayPal Donation image from the web and entered it into MobiOne page

    Then I went back to PayPal and created my Donation button but this time I selected to create the e-mail code rather then html.

    I copied the e-mail code which is simply a one line code rather than the long html code.

    In MobiOne I clicked on the image and in the properties field the On Click event I pasted that one line of e-mail code. I also selected popup in new window.

    I tested it in the simulator and it brought me to the PayPal donation screen, so I think it works.

    Give it a try !

    That is great advice. I plan on using e-commerce with paypal, so this will help.

    Is there no web control in MobiOne? I looked but could not find one. I would love to stay inside my app instead of linking to a web page. I don’t see any way to make an i-frame either. Not having a web control kinda kills me. MobiOne is so darn amazing otherwise!

    Can we import a jquery or webkit web control into MobiOne?
