Ajax Checkout Problems

[WGPuckett]

I am just getting started setting up my store front.  I would really like to use Ajax Checkout.  So far I have run into a couple of problems.

I downloaded the contrib from the osCommerce website which is dated 2 Feb 2009.  Is this the latest version?

When I first tried it it failed.  Turned out that ajax\javascript\form_check.js.php had an error.  It had the following:

Code:

<?
  echo $payment_modules->javascript_validation();

?>

I had to change the <? to <?php to get it to work.  This seems like a problem that everyone would encounter.  Which leads me to believe I don't have the latest version.

After that was fixed I am still getting an error.  The error is:

PHP Parse error:  parse error, expecting `T_FUNCTION' in E:\\eCommerce\\oscommerce-2.2rc2a\\catalog\\ajax\\classes\\ajaxManagerTest.class.php on line 480, referer: http://mytest.osctest.com/ajax_checkout.php

I don't know where to go from here.

One last thing.  I have read that this contrib is not very friendly with STS.  I don't mind how complex the fix may be to get it working.  Do you have specific instructions on how to modify one or the other to get them working together?  I'd really, really like to use both.
