Hi Jeff,

nice work ! I stumbled upon this and played around with it a bit in a test environment (and did a bit of of customizing as far as my html and css knowledge allows). Looks good, so now I am seriously considering implementing this on my website, as a quick and simple way to sell some items, without installing a huge/additional/overcomplicated eCommerce store.

But ... I would really need an option to e-mail the form data to me, when the client hits the checkout button, so I have a backup of the order/alternative payment method.

Few reasons:
-when client leaves after seeing the Paypal page.

-or not seeing the Paypal page at all ( sometimes seriously slow to process the request - in this perspective I am also really looking forward to the change of the checkout button into processing when hit- a suggestion I saw somebody else make overhere)

-Possibility to offer a bank transfer as payment option ( not everybody wants too pay by creditcard in Europe )

Anyway....Looking forward to a short term fix/hack or long term feature, unfortunately I undertstand only basic html and css and I am not at home in JS / PHP so maybe it's stupid easy, my apologies in advance...
