i would like to set up my shopping cart buttons with one rate for u.s. shipping using the paypal flat rate calculations; then have the buyer be able to select canadian shipping for a surcharge of twice the initial amount of shipping calculated or international shipping for a surcharge three times the initial amount. any suggestions of how to alter the code simply and effectively?

Couldn't you just transact in both CAD and USD and then you could set different shipping charges for both currencies?
Either that or you could run some sort of calculation script on your server and ask them to select a country for shipping before they checkout. That way you can pre-populate the correct charges!

Hello all,
I am new to paypal and html and would like to be able to allow my customers to be able to choose their state which will charge them an amount that i define per state and then pass them onto the checkout. Anybody know how to do this or direct me to where i can find a script that will allow me to do this ?
Thank you in advance,
Michael

True, It can certainly be done. One of the ways to do this is with a matrix (a table of alternatives) that presents the customer with a shipping chart. In the simplist case where everything is of the same weight you can use something like this... http://members.aol.com/paypalhelper/la1.htm
The other alternative is to have a shopping cart based on weight and distance. Here is a simple of such a thing... http://members.aol.com/paypalcart/
Please understand that there are other cart solutions, as advertiswed at the end of this forum... Ron.

OK, after much searching I found this code, to seperate shipping for US and shipping international:
<form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_cart">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="admin@artgazm.com">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Test">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="$.01">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/images/sc-but-03.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!" width="106" height="24">
<input type="hidden" name="add" value="1">
Please Select Your Shipping Preference:
<select name="shipping">
<option value="5.00">US - $5.00 </option>
<option value="7.00">International - $7.00</option>
</select>
</form>
HOWEVER, I also want to add a rate for the following items purchased, whereby the first would be £5, the second/third/fourth etc would be £2. This previously looked like this:
<input type="hidden" name="shipping" value="0.00">
<input type="hidden" name="shipping2" value="2.00">
How would I intergrate that into the above code without making my customers tell me their location twice?!

(the additional item price would only apply to international customers)
