This amazon script was originally developed by Uioreanu Calin in 2002, in this version we have adapted it for easier reading and editing, we always found the original version a great help but such a chore to find your way around with redundant files often getting in the way.
The Amazon Web Service PHP script comes with the ability to do the following:
* Product Display - The ability to search for and retrieve product information from the Amazon.com and .co.uk catalog.
* Shopping Cart - The ability to add Amazon.com products to shopping carts, wish lists, and registries from third party locations.
This script makes it a lot easier to call from either the United Kingdom Amazon store or the United States.
Uioreanu originally said "There are multiple approaches from a developer's point of view. The simplest one deals with SOAP and web services classes already implemented in PHP. You could also extend the PEAR's XMLParser object to parse Amazon results. The reason I did not choose these directions is because they require additional extensions installed with PHP. What I currently use is the XML parsing package that comes embedded in PHP, so it is slightly more general." This still stands today.
We have decreased the service down to around four key files and you should find it extremely easy to adapt
Full credit Uioreanu Calin as without him we would never have been able to adapt it.
