Summary
PHP functions to ease the work with Amazon.com™ Web Services 1.0

Description
The amazon_functions for PHP are developed to make the life of programmers using the Amazon.com™ XML-API a little bit more cosy. They include a caching XML-parser, functions to ease the search, retrieve the current modes and browsenodes, and automate the creation of "Add to cart"-forms, productslists and detailed product information.

IMPORTANT
Since April 16th 2004 the URL of the Amazon XML-Server has changed from http://xml.amazon.com/onca/xml to http://xml.amazon.com/onca/xml3. Please edit this in the amazon_functions version you are using or download the current version. The current version you can download here already includes this fix.
