With the advent of the Amazon.com Web Services being released to the general public, several different classes have popped up to make requests and parse the results of the XML returned from their API. I decided to see if I could do it as well, and wrote this parser class to parse the results of the API requests. The only thing it requires is a developer "token" which they'll give you for free when you sign up. Other than that, most of the functionality is in there already, complete with functions to help you output dropdown lists of the categories and radio buttons to select the kind of search that you want to perform. The XML parser even makes sub-arrays when needed (like if there's more than one author for a book) so that you don't have to worry about loosing any values.
I'm releasing this one, just like the others, as freeware over on the "Our Scripts" page for use by anyone and everyone, and, if you come up with a cool use for this class, drop me a line or leave a comment and let me know. I'd love to hear about it!
