Malcolm,
I got it working. Here it is:
if request['b_state'] == 'KS':
if request['seen_updates'] == '0':
a = theamount(request, 1.06)
data = request.POST.copy()
data['seen_updates'] = 1
f = ContactForm(data)
return render_to_response('checkout_form.htm', {'fo':
f, 'o': request.session['cart'], 'p': a, 'isitks': True})
////////////
Thanks for the help!
