  I am trying to inpute HTML code for a Paypal button. This code comes from Paypal. When I enter it on my page, it is stripped out and becomes just a table. Here is the code. <form action=”https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr” method=”post” target=”_top”>
  <input type=”hidden” name=”cmd” value=”_s-xclick”>
  <input type=”hidden” name=”hosted_button_id” value=”WJRMBJM2S8NAS”>
  <table>
  <tr><td><input type=”hidden” name=”on0″ value=”Type of Work”>Type of Work</td></tr><tr><td><select name=”os0″>
  <option value=”Virus Removal”>Virus Removal $25.00 USD</option>
  <option value=”MalWare Removal”>MalWare Removal $25.00 USD</option>
  <option value=”Hourly Fee”>Hourly Fee $20.00 USD</option>
  </select> </td></tr>
  </table>
  <input type=”hidden” name=”currency_code” value=”USD”>
  <input type=”image” src=”https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif” border=”0″ name=”submit” alt=”PayPal – The safer, easier way to pay online!”>
  <img alt=”” border=”0″ src=”https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif” width=”1″ height=”1″>

  Hi there,

  The code you mentioned won’t work here at WordPress.com. To add a PayPal button to your site, you’ll need to use the instructions here: PayPal

  In particular, take a look at step #9. You’ll want to copy the Email code from PayPal, rather than the HTML/Website code.

  You can find more details about why certain kinds of code aren’t allowed at WordPress.com here: Code

  Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)
