How to use multiple combo boxes for attributes

Dependant attributes with inventory are not available at this time.

I'm working on a shoe store where not all shoes come in all sizes and widths, not all styles come in all colors, or color combinations.

I used option name/option values to create a long list, in my case by manufacturers, of all the possible named colors and color combinations preceded by the mfgr's code number (for order fulfillment purposes). Then when I add attributes to the particular product, I can just pick out the ones that apply.

I used the same routine for shoe sizes and widths.

All the required information then shows up on the order.

Wish I could use color swatches, but I can't get images for all the colors, and then there would be the combinations to consider.
