Simple PayPal Javascript API to pass product and amount

I would like to have a simple form with two textfields and a button:

When clicking on a button the default PayPal checkout appears with product id and an amount pre-populated. How do I achieve that with Javascript?

update

I would like to achieve this strictly using Javascript, no server side code such as PHP. It would work more like a generic PayPal button with two more textfields carrying product ID and amount.

update 2

Instead of searching for PayPal Javascript API, I should've searched for PayPal button custom amount. Looks like this will solve my question.

Have a look at https://github.com/paypal/JavaScriptButtons

We've only recently released these, so they don't support all button types just yet (i.e. donations), but they'll work just fine for 'Buy now' buttons. 

<script src="paypal-button.min.js?merchant=YOUR_MERCHANT_ID"
    data-button="buynow"
    data-name="My product"
    data-amount="1.00"
></script>
