Thanks Joshiah. What I'd really like is a cute basket
that the user could drop the items into. My problem is
I'm a programmer (typist !)  and not a graphic artist!

I like that idea. I could just have the thumbnails displayed in an orderly
format with the quantities etc displayed alongside! Would look excellent!

What is a thumbnail technically? Is it just the original
image displayed with different height width attributes?
