hi
would it be a stretch to include on the koha opac
search a link to amazon to get more info like see this
book. 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
