Product Attributes in Table- PHP help?

[ksl8313]

Hello:

I'm running a wholesale store for a clothing company, and I've been using a scheme such that for each style, there are 3 slave products (small, medium, and large) and each slave product has its colors as its attributes.

However, how I'd ideally like the schema to be like is, to have 2 attributes - color and size - for each product, such that a customer can place their order like this:

_____|_S_|_M_|_L_|
Black |___|____|___|
White |___|____|___|

(sorry about the poor description, but you get the picture.)

and you can insert quantity for each size/color pair.

anyone with an idea for how to go about this?

thanks in advance,
