Hi,
In my application each item that is drawn form the search list is given a 
text input box so that the user can order several items from one page: 
one of this, two of that, one of the otrher, then hit the Order! button. 
But... after viewing the basket if they want ot come back to order some 
more, I am not able to put the currently-ordered quantities as values 
into the text input boxes. 
In the doc, we have:
"Results page ... Search list ... NOTE: those that reference the shopping 
cart do not apply, i.e. [item-quantity], [item-modifier ...] and friends. 
"
I don't know why this should be but I am sure there is a good reason for 
it. My query is Is there a way that I can get this information onto the 
search page so that people can see what they have already ordered while 
they see what else they want from the page?
