theres no database, its all in cgi pages.

When they "add to basket" a part number(acting as a key) is assigned a value(the quantity), and from then on that information is stored in hidden forms, untill completion(i.e. either the order is completed or the page is closed).

I've chosen this way coz there really is'nt many products on this site.

SirDice,
I agree with you there, but i don't see the security risks in sending un-confidential information via post.
any personal information is contianed within SSL and then encrypted using pgp.
