Discount Code on an ecommerce site??

[Deriksen]

Hi - I am wondering if someone can assist me with something I am trying to do... I built an ecommerce site with BV and the merchandise bought on this site will be done so through pay pal. What I need to do - is have a 'Discount Code' box that when the purchaser enters a certain code
(ex. abcdefg), it will take $11 off the item at hand.
Any ideas on how to make this work??????
Please??

You'll only be able to do this if you use more than just the paypal buttons for people to pay. You can still use paypal to pay, but you'll need a more robust cart - look into some like CartManager or Mal's Ecommerce - or even the Paypal shopping cart. Mal's has a free version. If you want more info on CM- ask me and I'll give you a link - it's not free.
