The problem you are describing is implemented in a quite amazing GPL shop. You might want to have a look: www.oscommerce.org

I did not make my request for information clear. The two scenarios which I
have to cover:

1. The user registers as a customer with the site. In this case the shopping
basket and items can be attached to the customer Id. and the shopping basket
made available across sessions. The shopping basket is created when the
first item is added. It is closed when the final order is placed.  I have
already coded this and it works satisfactorily.

2. The user does not register. Instead the process is to add items to a
shopping basket, which is then converted to an order or discarded at the end
of the session. How do I identify shopping baskets belonging to different
concurrent users?  Should I include the session Id in the record, use
cookies or what?

Is the php session Id a unique ID ?
