Net::Amazon::Request::BrowseNode is a class used to submit node search
requests to the Amazon web service.
The node to search for is specified in the browsenode parameter. The
browse node ID is a number that corresponds to a general subject area
of Amazon.com.
To find browse node IDs, the best way is to visit the ``browse'' area of the various product lines at Amazon.com. When you find a subject area that you would like to generate XML for, look at the web page URL. The browse ID should appear after the string ``/tg/browse/-/''. Here are some examples of URLs that contain browse IDs:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/30 (In this example, the browse ID = 30)
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/467970 (In this example, the browse ID = 467970)
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/602314 (In this example, the browse ID = 60231
Please be aware that some nodes cannot be used with a BrowseNodeSearch. (The vast majority of them can, but you may run across a few that simply will not work). It is also important to point out that from time to time, some browse nodes are deprecated or are changed without notice.
The catalog to search in is specified in the mode parameter,
typical values are books, music, classical or electronics.
An optional keywords parameter may be added to filter the results by that keyword.
Upon success, the responses' properties() method will return a list of
Net::Amazon::Properties::* objects.
Net::Amazon::Request::BrowseNode object, used to query
the Amazon web service for items in a particular category (node) in the
mode (catalog) specified.
Check the Net::Amazon::Request manpage for common request parameters not listed here.
