[ic] Error in strap for interchange e-commerce.

Thanks Jon,


Glad to hear that interchange is not dead. The real concern is that the 
online demo can crash and might lose any new customers. I would think 
that this would be concerning to everyone.

Having some problems navigating github to create a pull request. Tried 
several times.

The only changes that I made are 'size="xx" maxlength="xx"' to each 
field being edited with user information. Apparently, this was 
overlooked when the standard store was converted to strap.
