store over the past couple of weeks, due to some major problems with the
old site :(  let me know if it still isn't working, or if there are any
problems ...

herehttp://www.pgsql.com/pg_goodies/ where I chose the first option, Contribute to the PostgreSQL project.  I selected
USAand entered an amount in the amount field.  I clicked Process Order, and got an error message saying I needed to
enterat least one quantity or service, and my amount was cleared.  I re-entered it, and it was accepted.  This is
re-producible. The script looks like it should work, but it doesn't until you submit twice and re-enter your
contribution. Then I was sent to a secure web site, I accepted the certificate, but the page didn't load.  After 4
tries,it finally did.

contributionform should be only one item.  The Stuff link ought to be separate IMHO.
