page functionality review

I'm developing my first shopping cart from scratch, and am getting hung up by browser caching issues. I think I have worked a way around it, but I have no good way of testing it. That's where I hope people here can help out with! =)

How the page works is, you select a category from the left, select a color, then 4 steps show on the right letting the customer select the actual product & quantity. If I could get people to test this out, that would be great! Basically, if when you click to add an item to the cart, if the page comes back and says that product has been added to the cart, everything should be fine. But if that area on the web page returns blank, then there are still browser caching issues.

just a couple disclaimers,
1) do not select from the accessories category, I have to handle that catagory separately.
2) i'm just asking for a functionality review, not a design review. The design needs some reworking I know, but that will come later after the functionality.

Thanks in advance

Well it's working for me (Win2K/IE6) and looks pretty slick!

Just one thing though, it's category.

Thanks for testing it out. I had a co-worker try it before and said the page came up blank after adding an item to the cart, so I'm cautious.

Couple weeks ago I got into a bit of trouble when I had uploaded several new pages to the internet site, and the boss kept saying he doesn't see them, and kept requesting me to upload the pages. This went on for like a week with him getting a bit more irritated each day, and it was just a browser caching issue, once I emptied the cache out of his browser, all the new pages showed.

So that's why I really want to make sure these pages will avoid the caching problems.
