Some states (we in MO included) try to impose sales taxes on internet purchases. It's being challenged in various court cases. There is a page in the back of the MO tax booklet with a separate form for internet puchases. Naturally it's voluntary (no enforcement mechanism), and I don't get the impression that many are volunteering.

Personally, I just ignore it. I purchase very little via internet, so it makes even less difference to the state. But more fundamentally to me, it's based on the fallacious reasoning that if one didn't buy whatever on the internet that it would be bought locally. With me, the choice is almost always buy on the internet or don't buy at all.
