I have a "buy now" button, because I just want a simple payment. A customer goes to an invoice page and clicks one of the invoices. The invoice has a paypal "buy now" button. The price can be different depending on customer's plan. So I am just trying to override the amount that I configued on "Website Payments Standard". I set "7.00" as default, but I am trying to override with "$9.00", but it doesn't show $9.00. It keeps showing "$7.00". Is there a way to do it?
Here is my html form.
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="9.00">
<input type="hidden" name="quantity" value="1">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!">
