And, yes, I still have problems.

I did not see a problem with the code, and when I did a test submission of your form, the request was sent to PayPal (the sandbox, when I checked it just now.) Are you still having trouble with this one?</p> <p>There was a strange delay before the spinner showed up, about 4 seconds, then the spinner showed up and the request was sent to PayPal. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/passing-the-value-to-paypal-rather-than-the-label#post-85807 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 14:18:43 +0000 bgatley 85807@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Chris,</p> <p>I know you guys got slammed by the storm, but just want to check to see if you have had a chance to take a look at the code above? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/passing-the-value-to-paypal-rather-than-the-label#post-84341 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 20:12:40 +0000 bgatley 84341@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The progress wheel in the form just spins and spins and nothing happens.</p> <p><a href="http://pastie.org/5125504" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/5125504</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/passing-the-value-to-paypal-rather-than-the-label#post-84334 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 19:50:01 +0000 Chris Hajer 84334@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>What happens instead of the submission going to PayPal? </p> <p>Also, I notice a bunch of extra markup here.
