Bob,
It's actually not QUITE as easy as that.
You may also want to check if the quantity is available in inventory
before putting it into the basket.
This is checked for qty=1 in screens/item to choose whether to display
"Add" or "Backorder" on the submit button. However, you'll have to check
it again in ADD_BASKET.
How you deal with insufficiant quantity is up to you. Consider the
possibility of having some available but some needing to be backordered.
I didn't solve this problem because I don't actually use inventory
(qty=100000). Thus, I have no code, but I agree it should be CVS'ed.
