Title: POLL: Am I a Moron?
Post by: Kindleicious on January 17, 2014, 08:06:18 PM
Greetings all.

I'm unacquainted with pretty much all things BTC, so apologies for my ignorance.

A friend just asked if I'd set him up to receive BTC and already things seems a little complex.

I registered myself for an account at blockchain.info then created a wallet

( address is 1CvBmha3S9aDZTZLv61qsjQL7krCgvtw9D )

I then made a "donate" button and embedded it at the top of my own site - http://www.kindleicious.net - just a temporary test bed (or so I hope!!)



Ensured that the required scripts, were in the <HEAD>, vis:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://blockchain.info//Resources/wallet/pay-now-button.js"></script>


Then embedded the button code.


And OK, the button LOOKS fine but - when you click on it, the BitCoin address shown is different to the one I coded; what's more, if you refresh the page (and every time you refresh the page) - the BitCoin address changes.
