contact.city="Burlington"
contact.state="MA"
contact.zip="01803-3747"
contact.country="USA"
sale.billToAddress = contact
card = litleXmlFields.cardType()
card.number = "4457010000000009"
card.expDate = "0112"
card.cardValidationNum = "349"
card.type = 'VI'
sale.card = card

litleXml = litleOnlineRequest(config)
