Re: FN-FORUM: placing a 'donate' button on a website

date posted 13th August 2007 11:14

sorry for my utter ignorance in this respect - the only time i ever
used paypal was with using ebay - so i was under the impression that
the payer had to have an account

the wonders of the internet eh ?

incidentally - someone mentioned zen cart and security - i dont know a
hell of a lot about this - i advised her to look for a suitable
template and zencart is alreday installed on the server, am i going to
run into problems regarding security or is that something to do with
the payment gateway which i have not looked at yet
