Hey if you havent set up your MSlive site yet you might want to read this first. Here is a letter I sent to MSlive support:
Hello, I tried to view the community boards for an answer but I could not get it to load. Anyway, I want to know how I can set up my paypal shopping cart on my site?. I do not see an option to enter HTML and I need to enter it in order to use my paypal business account shopping cart. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards, William

I understand that you wish to add a PayPal button in order to set up Shopping Cart in your website. I certainly appreciate your efforts in writing to us.
William, Microsoft Office Live is in the beta phase. At Microsoft, a beta is an application or service that is being tested in real world environment by regular users. During the beta period integration of the e-Commerce and Shopping Cart is unavailable. Thus, you would be unable to add a PayPal button in your website using HTML codes.

So Im assuming that those of us with MSlive websites cannot integrate a shopping cart if we have to use html. Im really not keene on the idea of using any other checkout procedure other than paypals shopping cart.
Does anyone here know of any other shopping carts that don ot require HTML to implement that will also allow customers to pay to my paypal account address?
