Anyone able to help me here I'd greatly appreciate it. I've gone over the code multiple times and I cant figure out why i'm getting an error. I have my T-Shirt store built, Paypal buttons created, everything loads fine but when I select a T-Shirt and click Add to Cart I get the following error message from Paypal...
Error Detected

Below is the code I have for my shirt.php file which is the template file that is used to select the T-Shirt... I've gone over the tutorials 3 times and I'm really banging my head against a wall here...
Thanks!

you have: <input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="<?php $product["paypal"]; ?>">
should be: <input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="<?php echo $product["paypal"]; ?>">

Also on PayPal itself, make sure the product isn't expecting an additional field such as locale or some other setting that might have been set by accident.
