Answer 3

paypal like other payment services offer two flavours of their payment systems.

One is off site, where user is redirected to parent page from iframe(usually) that you clicked on.

The other option is integrated, where your transaction is seemlessly worked into your website so you never leave the page.

Your first step is deciding which one of these you want, the costs, the payment gateway fees your willing to deal with. If you are big enough to need a merchant account.
