I believe you need the following ( the following is psuedo code):
an initial dtml method that processes your form, let call it dtmlForm and it
has a variable prod_req which says how much of the product is requested.
In dtmlForm you of course must call some dtml method which we call
dtmlVerify.
In dtmlVerify you need to check:
do a dtml-let xyz= "queryProduct" ...
do a dtml-if "xyz <= prod_req" then ok else error.
I think that's it.
let me know if this helps.
