RE: [Koha] opac seach add-on
Another idea, how about a search on Yahoo or Google of Open Worldcat? For examples of a few tools see http://faculty.washington.edu/murata/worldcat/ For more details on Open Worldcat see http://faculty.washington.edu/murata/worldcat/ This might be a good option to offer on 0 hit searches?

I've been looking at cpan net::amazon. The heavy example script from net::amazon looks good but it returns info from amazon in xml The idea would be the koha opac seach result returns a link to amazon with the isbn from the koha database [as an option] You can not just add the isbn to the url. The amazon url contains the isbn but also contains a pointer to their database which changes depending on the isbn entered. I'm guessing a script could be written to open amazon and tab down to their search box. Then apply the isbn from koha and simulate a cr or enter. Any thought on how to do this? thanks re-v __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Check out the new Yahoo!
