Overview
This plugin allows you to link directly to items in your
posts using a special tag of the form:
[amazon ASIN=0123456789]Fancy Title[/amazon]
The plugin lets you set associate IDs for each international amazon server and set one server
as the default for your site.
It also includes an Amazon Search widget which will search any of the amazon servers
and produce search results with direct links to products.
It also provides an XSLT file for the amazon server to access, which processes it together with the XML results of
the search, and then returns HTML. This saves your server from having to process the XML itself.
It uses css to format the search widget and the search results. It will look in its css dir for theme-specific css files
too, so if you have one in there called your-theme-name.…
