  Well, this is much simpler than you imagine: you cannot use that code on a WordPress.com blog. You can ONLY use the Paypal Donate button as explained in the WP.com-specific instructions in the Support documents. http://support.wordpress.com/ Some people say you can use the Buy It Now button, but I have never seen that work on a Wp.com blog.

  Sorry, I have another problem with paypal code and “Paypal help” wrote me that the problem is from WordPress…I hope you can help me…I put the paypal button here: http://babyshowerfirenze.com/altri-servizi-alle-mamme/my-tummy-italia-abbigliamento-premaman/ but when I put the button from my page, paypal opens this page: “PayPal cannot process this transaction because of a problem with the seller’s website. Please contact the seller directly to resolve this problem.” Paypal wrote me that the problem is here: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick hosted_button_id=W9MJVTPVDX6BShttp://; if you see, at the end there is a http:// more; the correct link is: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=W9MJVTPVDX6BS. How can I cancel this http:// at the end?
  Thank you!
