It is pretty easy. Just place this in a test page:

    [tmp itemstuff]
	[loop random=5
		search="
		    ra=yes
			st=db
			fi=products
		"][loop-calc]
		$todo = int( rand(6) ) || 1 if ! defined $todo;
		return if ++$done > $todo;
		my $quan = int rand(10) || 1;
		return qq{
		    mv_order_quantity=$quan
		    mv_order_item=[loop-code]
		};
	[/loop-calc][/loop]
    [/tmp]

    To order:
    <xmp>[scratch itemstuff]</xmp>

	[page
	    form=|
		    mv_username=jking
		    mv_password=king
		    mv_click=Login
		    mv_action=submit
		    mv_order_profile=credit_card
		    mv_shipmode=PERD
		    mv_credit_card_number=4111 1111 1111 1111
		[time adjust="5 weeks"]
		    mv_credit_card_exp_year=%y
		    mv_credit_card_exp_month=%m
		[/time]
		    [scratch itemstuff]
	    |]Order this</A>

Voila! Patent violation!
