How do I teach him to wee into the toilet when he won't sit down?

Ds is 2.9, he will do all his wees into the potty when we're at home, but asks to have a nappy on to poo. Won't sit down on the potty to poo at all. Recently we bought a little step so he could reach the toilet and a kids toilet seat, but he refuses to use the toilet seat at all, won't sit down, wants to stand up and wee like daddy.

How do we accomplish this? Even standing on the step with me holding his hand for balance he's too little, his willy just sits on the rim of the loo. He won't hold or aim it at all, and just ends up getting frustrated and semi-straddling the loo, and his hands are all over the rim, it's gross.

Help, I don't know how to help him!

Meant to say he won't sit on the potty at all, to wee he just straddles it and pees straight down.
