more simplified version of my question

    [% totalprice = 900 %]<----  1  ----->

    [% FOREACH shopping %]

        [% modelname = key %][% information = value %]

        [% MAKE_NAME = information.MAKE %]

    <a href="/cgi-bin/welcome.pl?....>some link</a><br/>

    Quantity: [% information.QTY %] x [% information.PRICE %]<br/>

    [% ff = information.PRICE * information.QTY %]

    PRICE = [% ff %]<br/># lets say it is equal to 100

    [% totalprice = totalprice + ff %] <---- 2 ------>

        [% totalprice %]#print out 1000
    <hr/>

    [% END %]

    [% totalprice %]<----- 3 --------> #print out 900

    </div>
