Hi Joe,
Yeah I am familiar with those links and the variables. However I think my problem is that Formtools does not work with a cart because if you try to pass cmd=_cart, you get the error. When you pass cmd=_xclick it is fine. This is using the implementation on the Formtools site at any rate. So I had to be content with building up a single variable for amount & tax and passing that over and it works fine.
If Ben or one of use could come up with a solid implementation of a cart with Formtools that stored the transactions, that would be a very nice thing considering the nice implementation Formtools has. But I guess this is crossing over into shopping cart ecommerce territory.

I think you may need to pass a variable amount through the Buy Button to Paypal. I would just calculate the in PHP and then pass that amount to Paypal.
