I don't know how its done now but I used a simple routine that would
simply not display anythign with a quanity of zero. I also did some
hackery that prevented people from ordering more items than existed at
that time. If they did then their order woudl be reduced and a warning
displayed.

It wasn't really that hard. Its just a matter of some [if]s and a couple
[data] lines.
