The Blockchain.info donate button just contains/links to the receive address set up for that button. Simply have someone send to that address and it will arrive in the wallet that has the key needed to spend from that address (i.e. the one where the address was created or imported as a private key).

If you are using the payments API, things are in fact different. Your script needs to call the API and get an address for the buyer/donator to send to. When the buyer/donator sends to that address, it will be forwarded to your wallet (as specified in the API call), you'll be able to see that the txn was in fact paid, using the API, and you get a callback (if applicable). I'm fairly sure you need to call the API to get a new address for each transaction.

You should try asking in the right sub-forum:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=85.0

That said, I saw lots of notes that the Blockchain.info API was not working properly for them - depending on what you making by "it doesn't work". See e.g.:

Indeed, this is waaaay too vague for anyone to be able to help you.  OP, you're going to have to fill in the details if you want help.
