Loading ...How do I get my PayPal “buy now” button to go to the correct page?
I supposedly "customized" a button on PayPal for my website. It’s not working, all it does is send the client to the PayPal site, NOT the customized page it’s supposed to send the client to in order to buy the product. Additionally, it doesn’t open up in a new page, it opens up on my website page. Can anyone help? I’ve contacted PayPal and their solutions keep giving me the same results. Thanks in advance.

The PayPal "Buy Now" button is always suppose to be coded for the PayPal site so it will allow your customers to buy the product the button is for. If you need to send them to another page for some reason to buy from THAT page, then you need just the basic image button link code:
Making an image a link:
<p><a href="URL path to external link" title="Mouseover Description"><img style="width: XXpx; height: YYpx; border: 0;" src="Path to image" alt="Text Description"></a></p>
You can change the "p" tags to div tags and style as needed to make a nice div container for image links.

You can set it like this. So you wanna open up the link in a different page. That’s something with HTML. Try this code.
<a href="PayPal link" target="_parent"><img src="paypal logo"/></a>
You please note that you change the target according to your wish. You can use any of these. _blank or _parent or _self.
Don’t use _self because that will give you the same result. Try using _parent. I think this is gonna fix your problem. Hope this helped.
If you are using a button it is better to use Java Script for this purpose. When the user clicks over the button execute this Java Script code.
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementByTagName("input")
.onclick=window.open
("http://www.paypal.com/");
</script>
