On a previous shopping cart, some of our "fantastically complex" scripts got
so big that WE couldn't follow the logic.... too many conditional test,
things started to conflict.... it was hell... so we found that it was better
to break the processing code apart from the html..... but build one file
that includes all needed files into one to simulate the "One-file-one-form"
approach..... this made all our lives easier..... JMT.
