1. A method of forming a flexible container, the method comprising: providing one or more flexible materials, which comprise one or more films;joining together at least a portion of the one or more flexible materials to form: a product volume;a first nonstructural panel, which overlays the product volume;a second nonstructural panel, which overlays the product volume; anda plurality of structural support members, each of which includes a structural support volume, that are configured to be formed into a structural support frame, which supports the product volume, wherein said joining step simultaneously forms said product volume, said nonstructural panels, and said plurality of structural support members, and wherein said plurality of structural support members includes: a first middle structural support member, oriented about vertically, extending from a top of the container, through a middle of the container, and into a bottom of the container;a second middle structural support member, oriented about vertically, extending from the top of the container, through the middle of the container, and into the bottom of the container;a third middle structural support member, oriented about vertically, extending from the top of the container, through the middle of the container, and into the bottom of the container; anda fourth middle structural support member, oriented about vertically, extending from the top of the container, through the middle of the container, and into the bottom of the container; andfilling the product volume so that the product volume directly contains a fluent product;closing the product volume; andexpanding the structural support volumes, to form the structural support frame;wherein, when the structural support volumes are expanded, the container has: the first middle structural support member, on the left side of the container, adjacent to the first panel;the second middle structural support member, on the right side of the container, adjacent to the first panel;the third middle structural support member, on the right side of the container, adjacent to the second panel, and in contact with the second middle structural support member along at least parts of their overall lengths; andthe fourth middle structural support member, on the left side of the container, adjacent to the second panel, and in contact with the first middle structural support member along at least parts of their overall lengths; andproviding a dispenser that is configured to dispense the fluent product from the product volume, wherein the dispenser is formed from the one or more films. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein, when the structural support volumes are expanded, the first middle structural support member and the fourth middle structural support member are in contact with each other along about all of their overall lengths.
