Answer 4

If you want to run Express Checkout in an iFrame, see Digital Goods for Express Checkout: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_api_IntroducingExpressCheckoutDG

You'll need to have it turned on in the sandbox by PayPal's Tech team before you can use it.

Answer 5

This means that Paypal doesn't allow you to use Paypal in an iframe. You should not use Payapl in an iframe.

Answer 6

I'm currently working with paypal. You could, at first, think "Hey! tons of doc!! yay!", but it actually SUCKS. Tons of doc that assume you already know what you're looking for. Try the following JS code (you should have already invoked setExpressCheckout method and have a token):

$(document).ready(function() {
    //asynchronously fetch paypal's javascript
    jQuery.getScript('https://www.paypalobjects.com/js/external/dg.js', function(){console.debug("javascript loaded");});
});

//the handler that opens the iframe should be the following. This code assumes token variable has already been initalized
var dg = new PAYPAL.apps.DGFlow({trigger:null, expType:"light"});
dg.startFlow('https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/incontext?token=' +token);

The only thing I needed here whas the F***NG correct URL to use for testing (sandbox environment).

By the way, make sure you are logged in into your sandbox account before testing ;)
