How do I make a PayPal donate button default to $10 but enable users to change the amount?

Using this tutorial I made a textbox where the user is able to specify the amount they want to pay on a form I have complete control over, before I send them to a PayPal webpage to complete the transaction.

My gemfile:

gem 'paypal-sdk-adaptivepayments'

My Ruby payment code

  p = PayPalPayer.new
  amt = @buyamount.to_f
  trackingId = SecureRandom.uuid
  senderEmail = '[email protected]'
  receiverEmail = '[email protected]'
  url = 'http://redirectotohereafterpaymentcomplets'
  pay = p.pay(senderEmail, receiverEmail, amt, url, trackingId)
  redirect pay[:url] //this takes the user to a page to complete the payment

    Today I learned why it is against policy to just post links. I dug up my code and pasted it in. Commented Jan 1, 2016 at 19:34
