You can now save and delete your BillSplits!

I added a BillSplit Management panel that allows you to save, delete and open previously saved BillSplits.

I struggled on placement of the BillSplit Management panel and ended up settling for a simple non-rounded corner css box.

As an afterthought, I added a few handy features.  After opening a saved BillSplit, it runs the calculation for you to show everything.  Same goes for the Save As.

BillSplit Basic is 100% cookie-based.  This means I don't have to mess around with a server-side database and it also means the application is scalable beyond your wildest imaginations with ZERO administration complexities.  No session state to worry about, no worries about load balanced servers not communicating, no worries about anything really.

Next update will improve error handling in Bill List and People List adding.  I'm also planning on adding simple math function support on the Amount textboxes.  This way, if you've already set "Bob" as pre-paying $27 for the water bill, but realize later that he also paid $15 for his share of the beer on Friday night, you could go into "Bob's" Pre-Paid text and just append "+15" in the field to have it automatically calculate the sum! Sure, you can do $27+15 in your head (when you're not drunk), but what about $39.83+12.29?  Ok fine, so your math isn't that horrible.  But really, the whole reason for BillSplit's existence to make our lives easier. Like sliced bread.

I should finish the rest of the tabs too.
