You need to post your code to get any meaningful help. Please refer to the Markdown Cheatsheet for formatting instructions.

The PHP course may be difficult if you do not have a strong background in HTML. Depending on your experience, the Front End Web Design or the Web Development tracks may be a better place for you to start.

<form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"> <input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="<?php $product["paypal"] ?>"> <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="<?php $product["name"] ?>"> <table> <tr> <th> <input type="hidden" name="on0" value="Size"> <label for="os0">Size</label> </th> <td><select name="os0" id="os0"> <?php foreach($product["sizes"] as $size){?> <option value="<?php echo $size ?>" ><?php echo $size ?> </option>

 <?php }?>

</select> </td></tr> </table> <input type="submit" value="Add to Cart" name="submit">
