Not sure if I'm posting this in the right section.

I am wondering how I'd go about adding a paypal donation button to my filemaker solution. I just want to add a simple button the user can click and it will take them to paypal to make a donation.

Paypal has a button creator, but it generates html to paste into a site. Not sure how to make it happen with a FM solution.

Copy a PayPal image on to the layout or place it in a container field.

Use a PayPal code generator capable of producing hyperlink code instead of form code.

Place the PayPal hyperlink in a script using the Open URL script step.

I can't seem to figure out where to generate a hyperlink code instead of form code. Do you know how this can be done?

Just as I posted that I figured it out. When you create a website button you have to turn off the button encryption option and it will give you a hyperlink for email (or in this case filemaker script).
