Show # of items in PayPal cart on own website w/ Express Checkout?

    Anyone know if it's possible to display the number of "items" presently in the PayPal Express Checkout shopping cart on my own Website?

    For instance, if someone chose two items, returned to shop -- the shopping cart image will have a number next to it that read "2" on my own Website.

    Thanks!

    I don't think the PayPal Shopping Cart has that capability. :(

    I didn't think so. Thought it would be a long shot to see if any information could be shown on another insecure website about a user's account information. If even only the # of items presently chosen.

    I assume you might like to try using some open source shopping cart software to customize if to your needs. Such products can usually be integrated with PayPal. Of course, the amount of work might be huge.

    That's the next step. My recommendation for doing that is ProStores with Neoverve's help. eCommerce isn't something I want to get very involved with myself.
