Rough but it works...Needs a lot of work to make this thing actually be 
productive.  The discount does not seem to be applied until I go back and 
submit the form again.

[set couponcompare]
[if type=data term="gift_certs::code::[value coupon]"]
[discount code=ALL_ITEMS] $s * .90 [/discount]
[/if]
[/set]

<input type=hidden name=mv_todo value=return>
<input type=hidden name=mv_nextpage value="/ord/checkout">

<input type="text" size="10" name="coupon" size="5">

[button
