mv_order_item and mv_order_quantity turn into arrays.  You need to make
sure that your mv_order_item[n] is the right one for mv_order_quantity[n].

This is unreliable:

Some browsers will post 1, some 0, some 1 or 0 depending on how many other
items exist in form.  Better:
> <INPUT TYPE=text NAME=mv_order_quantity VALUE="1">

<SELECT NAME="mv_order_item"><OPTION VALUE="400979-319.99">AutoFresh Select Aerosol 
Dispenser - 319.99 ($319.99)<OPTION VALUE="400979-59.95">AutoFresh Select 
Aerosol Dispenser - 59.95 ($59.95)</SELECT>
<INPUT TYPE=text NAME=mv_order_quantity VALUE="1">
