Small Business starter kit

Aug 28, 2010 09:15 PM|LINK

Hi there, i have downloaded the small business starter kit to try and create a site for my mum. i have added all the items ect. but on the item page i want to have a paypal button. but not sure how i can do it as i get an error. i dont want to spam but have not got a host to upload to... so basically

This is what each of my item code looks like below and i want to add a link to the same bit of the page but if i add extra code within this item tag it comes up with an error..

<item>
    <id>60</id>
    <visible>true</visible>
    <title>Fishermans Friend</title>
    <description>Description of the item</description>
    <price>9.50</price>
    <inStock>true</inStock>
    <imageUrl>item02.jpg</imageUrl>
    <imageAltText>BUY IT NOW</imageAltText>

<item/>

There is a an items.aspx page which has these details...

<div id="content-main-three-column">
            <h2>
                <asp:Label ID="LabelCurrentCategory" runat="server" Visible="true" Text=""></asp:Label></h2>
