Think the Amazon SOAP service could be easily implemented with PEAR::SOAP using the WSDL proxy code but whether this is something for PEAR? Perhaps someone could add it to the examples for PEAR::SOAP? Having said that, last time I played with the Amazon SOAP service, when listing say books, you could only get one book at a time (which means a list of 10 books becomes 10 seperated HTTP requests - very slow). Their REST based XML service may be something that could be handled by SaxFilters with the help of an HTTP client. Again could be something for example code.

I hadn't seen that one. I also haven't seen addressed anywhere the Amazon Shopping Cart features that also come with the API. Quoting Peter Schoenster <peter@schoenster.com>:

(s) would look like yet, is it even something that belongs in PEAR.
I don't know about belonging to PEAR but there is something like XML_Amazon: http://www.amazonlite.com/ Peter -- PEAR Development Mailing List (http://pear.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
