    Hi, thanks again for your previous help. One question I have is this ...

    I thought the form exclusively related to PayPal, which is the online payment account that I have.

    However, I notice that credit card options are also offered to the left of PayPal .. are these credit card options separate to PayPal or are the processed through PayPal?

    Thank you.

    John

    Another related question ...

    I have set up another new form which is not on the website yet called 'Buy Report' .. I would be grateful if you could tell me how to

    1) Add the PayPal payment fields

    2) Modify the 4 product options

    3) Create the iFrame code for the website

    Thank you.

    Kind regards,

    John

    All payments are processed through the payment field you have on your form. This means that when you are using a PayPal payment field, the payment will be processed through PayPal. Essentially, PayPal can process payments from customers either by them using their PayPal account, or by using their Credit Card information directly.

    With a standard Paypal payment field, your users are redirected to PayPal, so they make this choice on the PayPal's website. They can log into their PayPal account, or pay directly with a credit card.

    Our PayPal PRO payment field allows you to have the user make that exact same choice, but directly on your form. The payments are still processed by PayPal.

    You may want to take a look at the following guide for a better understanding of differences between standard PayPal field and PayPal PRO field:

    Hi Boris,

    Thanks again for your help - I think I am making progress and the iFrame format you suggested also allows the payments form to show in the Filemaker database, which was my initial problem.

    I have created a new form from scratch, which I have embedded in the report at the following link. 

    http://www.laboratorymarkets.com/Report_description.asp?startingPoint=0&interval=10&id=3323&s=&ss=&i=&search=ks&keywords=&searchtype=Reports

    I have a few more questions :-)

    1) can the form be modified so that it shows on the left of the web page, rather than in the middle?

    2) How do I edit the three products listed and also add another, as I want to list four products.

    Thank you once again,

    John

    Hi John,

    Thank you for contacting us.

    1) can the form be modified so that it shows on the left of the web page, rather than in the middle?

    If you inject this CSS code into your form, your form will be aligned left of the page.

    .form-all{

    margin-right: 391px;

    }

    Here is a guide helps you to inject CSS code:

    Everything works properly on my side, as you can see:

    Hi Helen,

    Thank you for your help.

    I would be grateful if you could tell me where I need to insert the coding to left justify into the iFrame coding below. Thank you.

    Hi,

    You must paste the form's iFrame codes to the source code of the particular web page where you want the form to be embedded. For example, your current embed code is here:
