[How can I] do just like you did on your expansion page and collect the name/email when they order?

Well, Diana, it's an easy, three-step process:

1. Copy your autoresponder's form code from your squeeze page (squeeze.html) and paste it into your sales page (salesletter.html).

You'll be replacing your existing order button with this form. Dress it up with graphics if you want, but make sure you have instructions there that tell the user why they're giving their name and e-mail address up front.

2. Change the "Thank You"/redirect/confirmation page URL for your
   autoresponder from:

http://[yourdomain.com][/scripts_folder]/index.php?action=download

to

http://[yourdomain.com][/scripts_folder]/index.php?action=order

Replace [yourdomain.com] with your domain and (optionally) [/script_folder] with the scripts folder you use in settings.php. Now, when the form is submitted your customer will be taken to PayPal.

3. Edit the Bypass Squeeze Page setting in exp_settings.php:

$exp_bypass_squeeze = true;

Make sure there is a semi-colon (";") at the end of that line! Now, when your customer returns from PayPal, 7DSS will not show the squeeze page; instead, they will proceed directly to the download page or the OTO page, depending on your 7 Dollar Secrets
Scripts settings.

The script flow has now changed from

Sales Page -> Order -> Squeeze Page -> Download/OTO

to

Sales/Squeeze Page -> Order -> Download/OTO
