I went to resub but on this page: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/subscriptions.php](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/subscriptions.php) when I click the paypal link all I get is a blank page.

It worked for me. I went straight to the Chicago Reader, Inc. PayPal screen, where it prompted me to log in.

:smack:

I’m using the Firefox extension “Redirect Remover” which was stripping out the [paypal.com](http://paypal.com) part and sending me [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/subscriptions/paypal.php). Opening the “uncleaned link” works fine.
