Google Checkout for Table Reservations in a Nightclub

Hi Everyone.
I own a Nightclub and we're setting up Google Checkout so we
can take
online "table reservations".  Essentially....
people will go to our
website, click on reservations, and then be taken to a
calendar, where
they will choose the date they want, and then see a
"map" of the club,
where they can then pick which table they want, select which
bottle
they'd like to reserve with (champagne, etc) via pulldown
tab, and
then complete the transaction with google checkout using
their credit
card.

My question is, I basically want to set it up so when each
table
(which will be identified as the table # and the date, ex. 
"Table 1 -
3/15/2007") is sold, it will no longer be available on
the website.
What's the best way to go about doing this?

In other words, as soon as [Table 1 - March 15] is sold, it
will show
on the website that it's already taken (or just disappear
alltogether), so no one will end up double booked.  My
apologies if
this is a really dumb question!  If anyone has any insight,
or could
point me in the right direction, it would be greatly
appreciated.
Also, if I've left out anything relevant, please let me
know!  Thanks
in advance for everyone's input.

Create an API url that can accept the XML that Google
Checkout will
send you.  You should be able to find a sample function
somewhere in
the code samples that should get you more than well on your
way!

Put in some information like an ID in the item description
like
#1.03152007 for table 1 & march 15th.  or you could add
the merchant-
item-id into your shopping cart XML, then on notifications
back from
Google you can find that order number and parse the results
to see
that table 1 was paid for March 15th, then you can integrate
with the
bottle of choice as well.

Once you confirm that your table is reserved and paid for,
update
whatever data that populates your tables for that night with
this new
information and then have the output blockout or remove the
item from
the listing on your website


You could also add this to the order for them to confirm
with you
their order when they get to the club if you needed.
<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>
<add-merchant-order-number xmlns="http://chec
kout.google.com/schema/2"
   
google-order-number="SOMEGOOGLEORDERNUMBER">
   
<merchant-order-number>SOMECONFIRMNUMBER</merchant-
order-number>
</add-merchant-order-number>

Basically each table-date combo will be considered a single
product. You can 
use http://www.e-junkie.com/
to set the products. While adding the product 
check the option "needs inventory" and set the
quantity to 1. That will 
prevent the sale of the same product twice.
