perl4fun has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm migrating to PayPal advanced for my payment processor. My shopping cart is a Perl cgi script. I have the interface to PayPal working but when I pass the customer info to PayPal the PayPal iframe appears in a separate window and not on top of the customer input window. Also, upon a successful payment or upon an error (bad CC#, bad exp date, etc.) PayPal is returning my customer to the correct url but that url is being displayed inside of the iframe. Can anyone help?

    Hard to guess on that because you've shown no code... and it's not clear whether the display described at the end of your penultimate sentence is something you think is correct (acceptable) or otherwise, so:

    ... are you sure it's a Perl question, and not:
    • ...a problem with PayPal's code?
    • ... an html problem (check your headers... both ways!)
                or
    • ... (who knows?; need more info!)

    Please -- give us a fighting chance to help you... with relevant details, an unambiguous problem statement and your code.
