The fundamental problem with this page is the factor of 15.
You have a list of possible products listed 15 times so that a
customer could purchase multiple items.

In my opinion javascript might be your best bet for cutting back on
the shear volume of content in the page.

There is another list that might be more helpful on that aspect of the
problem. http://webdesign-L.com/
There could easily be other more appropriate lists. This just happens
to be one I subscribe to.

One approach to tackling the problem would be to have a single list of
products and multiple lines of input.
In a simplistic approach a radio button could be used as the selector.
The form would open with the radio button selected for the first sales line.
The customer could select a product from the master drop-down list,
select quantity, then click a button indicating wish to buy it.
This would add that item to a separate input field and move the radio
button selection to the next item and restyle the drop-down list so
that now it is positioned on the second line.

etc.

All of this would require some nice css styling (this list could help
with that.)
But to run the guts of the process you will need javascript or php or
something similar.

Basically to make that page accessible, in my opinion, you will need
to divide the content size by 15.
