[ic] Now: Re: Charging sales tax to Billing State

Well, I guess I mixed up what I was asking.  The technically correct way 
to charge sales tax is the the purchaser, not necessarily the receiver.  
So, if the billing state is filled in, then sales tax should be calculated 
to this, if not, then assume that Billing Address == Shipping Address, so 
calculate based on the Shipping State.

Any ideas on how to implement this easily?
