so i’ve created a flash website where items can be added to a completely internal flash cart.

and i’m hoping to use google checkout, which has a simple api for HTML forms… which means I can just as easily POST values from flash. nice.

here’s the documentation: [http://code.google.com/apis/checkout/developer/google\_checkout\_html\_api.html#understanding\_the\_basics](http://code.google.com/apis/checkout/developer/google_checkout_html_api.html#understanding_the_basics)

but they say in the website documentation that you have to come from a HTML page, where the very special and holy google checkout button submits the form.

i’m pretty confident it \*would \*work. My main concern is “is it illegal” for me to import the button into flash and submit it internally. i don’t want the user to have to leave the environment and send all the data to an HTML page for submission.

don’t really want google to be mad at me
