Linking between views

I have 2 views, one called PostToPalPal as below and DomainConfirmationView. On the DomainConfirmationView i have a button that is linking to PostToPayPal which then redirects to paypal via a post event. The problem i have is when i click on this button it does not do anything. I have got this working on another page however i only had @model dynamic at the top of the page and the rest was HTML. Does anyone have idea's where i am going wrong? Apologies if this is something really dumb, this is a my first go at MVC.

Thanks

@model application.Models.PayPal

@{
    Layout = null;
}

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Index</title>
    <script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-1.6.2.min.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="frm" [email protected]>
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.cmd)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.business)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.no_shipping)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.@return)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.cancel_return)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.notify_url)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.currency_code)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.item_name)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.amount)
    </form>
    <p style="text-align: center">

I also have a controller called DomainsController



      [HttpPost]
            public ActionResult PostToPayPal(string item, string amount)
            {
                YippeeYay.Models.PayPal paypal = new Models.PayPal();
                paypal.cmd = "_xclick";
                paypal.business = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["BusinessAccountKey"];

                bool useSandbox = Convert.ToBoolean(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["UseSandbox"]);
                if (useSandbox)
                    ViewBag.actionURL = "https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-big/webscr";
                else
                    ViewBag.actionURL = "https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr";

                paypal.cancel_return = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["CancelURL"];
                paypal.@return = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ReturnURL"];
                paypal.notify_url = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["NotifyURL"];

                paypal.currency_code = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["CurrencyCode"];

                paypal.item_name = item;
                paypal.amount = amount;
                return View(paypal);
            }

This section:

@using(Html.BeginForm("PostToPayPal", "Home"))
{
  // Form goes in here
}

... is what's writing your tags, which need to contain your submit button. At the moment your submit button is outside this section, so the only things in your form are your two hidden fields. Move your submit button inside the form and it should work.
