Our buddies over at PayPal have released an SDK for ASP.NET developers. It contains a set of ASP.NET server controls with designer support.
Most PayPal integration points involve creating a Web page that submits a form with payment information to PayPal.com; but there’s a wrinkle in ASP.NET — it takes over the <form> tag for its own use, so submitting a form to a different site isn’t straightforward. The PayPal server controls resolve this problem, redirecting you to PayPal.com for payment processing in a straightforward way that in most cases doesn’t require any code.
I have been playing with this over the past few nights and ran across a funny with the way the SubscriptionButton works. I got it working after experimenting with it a bit and posted my workaround on the PayPal developer board.
