I am looking for a simple way to give my donors 2 choices:
1- One time gift of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, 1000 OR
2- Monthly Gift of 10, 15, 20, 25, 50, 75, 100, 150, 200, 250
Any help would be great. Email tellray@canada.com on behalf of 100tipis.com if you have more questions. Thank you!

When creating the Donation button, if you leave the "amount" blank this will create a button where the buyer can fill in the amount. The Donation applies to one-time "purchases", however, and will not apply to the recurring (subscription) feature.

Javascript to the rescue! For the first half anyway. Create a drop down menu. Each field is a value that you listed. <select value="25">$25.00 <select value="50">$50.00 <select value="75">$75.00 Then use a small script to have it change the value of the donate button's "value" field to the desired value. This will only work for single donations though. I don't think there is yet a subscription system for donations. If you need help writing the script, it is very simple (if you know Javascript), and I'd be glad to help out. -David webmaster_removethis_@deadseabeauty.net

Use a drop down for the amount. One-time: <form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"> <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick"> <input type="hidden" name="business" value="payment@mysite.com"> <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Donation"> <select name="amount"> <option value="50">50 <option value="100">100 <option value="250">250 <option value="500">500 </select> <input type=submit value=Contribute> </form> Recurring: <form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"> <select name="amount"> <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick-subscriptions"> <input type="hidden" name="business" value="payment@mysite.com"> <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Donation"> <input type="hidden" name="p3" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="t3" value="M"> <select name="a3"> <option value="50">50 <option value="100">100 <option value="250">250 <option value="500">500 </select> <input type=submit value=Contribute> </form> Patrick Breitenbach PayPal, Inc.

Patrick, when I tried your form, I got what I wanted with one exception: I got a blank drop down menu with no values in it on the left, then the drop down menu with the amounts in the ranges, I specified, and then the contribute button. I clicked on Contribute it and set up a page for the amount I'd chosen for just 1 month. I'm sure I need to put some values in that first (blank) drop down menu, but I'm not understanding where I need to do so. I'm not a developer, so please forgive my need for "explanations for dummies!" Thanks! Valerie Brestel-Ohle Chairman, Founder - WKI www.wisdomkeepers.org

Oops!!! looks like there was a stray line in there, and maybe one or two missing :) Try this for the recurring button:
<form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr">
<input type="hidden" name="t3" value="M">
<input type="hidden" name="p3" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Donation">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="payment@mysite.com">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick-subscriptions"> Select
your contribution: <select name="a3">
<option value="50">$50
<option value="100">$100
<option value="250">$250
<option value="500">$500
</select>
<input type="hidden" name="src" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="sra" value="1">
<input type="submit" value="Contribute">
</form>
Using this button is

That worked. Thanks, Patricia. :) Now on to the next step. Is there a way to give a donor an option to set the amount themselves, then pick from a range of choices for reoccurrence? Example: Donor fills in dollar amount, then picks from monthly, quarterly, or annually. Thanks again! Valerie Valerie Brestel-Ohle Chairman, Founder - WKI www.wisdomkeepers.org

Patricia - when I used the coding you supplied for payment options, I tried to change the wording "Contribute" to "Pay Now" and added some extra payment options. However, when I copied and pasted to the website, it drops the "Pay Now" text and the Submit text reverts to "Submit Query". Do you know why this is happening?
