Multiple forms on one page

[steel_quill]

I am trying to put together a stripped-down online order form that allows a
user to enter quantities ordered for a bunch of products, as well as their
mailing address.

I'd like to set the page up with two forms so that when a person submits it,
the mailing address info from one form is put into an email and an iterative
function goes through and collects the info about what was ordered from the
other form. I'm trying to avoid having to hand-code all the product selections.

Is this the best way to go about doing this, and if so, where do I go to find
out how to set up the forms in this manner? Any help would be greatly
appreciated!

Two forms will not work in the way that you want because when the button on
pressed on one, only the values contained within that form will be passed.
You need to contain all your form variables within a single form.
