I'm trying to use the Amazon Merchant API (I think that's the name of it, I can't find docs anywhere...) to mark orders as shipped. We process orders in an internal system, and I need a way to find the corresponding amazon order, and confirm shipment -- basically the same thing you do manually from the orders tab of your seller account. ...

Standard contact form: name, email, subject, message with standard validation checks. However, the form action="#" and onsubmit="validate()" I'm wondering if anyone has h...

Hi everyone, My application needs to retrieve information about any published book based on a provided ISBN, title, or author.

We are using Amazon S3 for images on our website and users upload the images/files directly to S3 through our website. In our policy file we ensure it "begins-with" "upload/".

I developed an entire site using Amazon's flash widgets. Then I applied a class to the widget which made copy flow around it. Everything worked fine.
