can attributes control stock levels

[ultimamedia]

if you have some attributes (custom fields) can they control the "in stock" level of the product - is there any way to achieve this without using child products?
its crucial if you have different variations of a product when they sell out!

Using stockable plugin is the only option.

Thanks Maxim fixed that one - do you know if its possible to pass html javascript through custom fields default field - as opposed to it being added to the product?
