Purpose: This template defines the layout of the checkout (page 1) of the 3 step checkout. This is where customers enter their shipping information.

Notes: The template contains a form which is used by the customer to enter their shipping address information. No changes should be done to the form as the field names/values are very important and should not be changed. Adding or removing fields could cause the form to stop working. You can however, change the look/feel of the form using CSS/HTML. This template also contains a special code block labeled "checkout_questions_templates" which inserts checkout questions if they are present on step 1 of the checkout process.

Note: It is important to preserve the commented tags to ensure the software performs correctly.

For example:
