Integrating PayPal's shopping cart with GetSimple

[hameau]

Either way, the method I employed in the tutorial is the exact method that is given by PayPal's own button generator ...

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound critical of your tutorial. I agree that you are generating exactly the same code that PayPal would give and that it is perfectly acceptable (given the PP account safeguards that you mention).

What confused me somewhat is that if you go to that PayPal button generator when logged in to a PayPal account (which is what I've always done), then the default is a coded button, stored at PayPal. That's why I have never seen the plain-text version there ...

Anyway, to my original question: provided that the PayPal account holder is diligent in checking orders before accepting the funds, can we presume that any risk is low and controlled? It sounds as if that should be the case. Am I paranoid for no reason? :-o
