And, by the way, it's a piece of cake to add questions into
checkout.html and to have them pop up on those 2 mailings.

In commerce.cgi, I had to add the additional questions and fields into
an existing array and some other gymnastics across several files.

SInce I am selling items of clothing, I want the wearers height,
weight, and waist size so that I can be comfortable that what I am
shipping is the right size for them. I also want the customer to be
able to have a comments section so that they can leave us specific
instructions or information (like leave the package under the tarp that
is under the deck on the right side of the house!) (We put those
instructions on the packages faithfully. I don't really care whether
they get followed or not, as long as the customer sees that we tried
(-: )

The hardest part of the whole process was the cosmetics on
checkout.html. Once I was satisfied with that, a few easy lines in those
2 files up there was all that it took to get them reported! It was
almost TOO easy! :-)
