Introducing...
Me.
Long time site reader, new to the forums. I hopped over from DevShed and thought I'd say hello. I'm a self-taught coder (with the help of sites like this) who has built quite a few sites. I've tried a little of a few different languages, and hope to do more. But most of my work has been with ASP or PHP. I've jumped on the Web Standards train too. Recently I've been playing with the Google and Amazon API's via PHP and SOAP, XML/RSS feeds, re-building my site, and completing a custom PHP/MySQL shoppping cart project between sending out resumes after a recent move to the Northwest. It's alot colder here than Florida. |

Hey INF,
Welcome aboard... Seems like you've got quite a bit of history with coding! All self-taught? Impressive! How are you finding the Google and Amazon APIs? I hear they offer some nice functionality! I share your pain of the cold!! It's damn cold here now... The snow is falling as I type! ![]() |

The API's are surprisingly easy with PHP. The NuSOAP class makes it real simple to return data. It just returns everything in a nice little array to loop through.

INF,
It's something I've been meaning to take a look at for the longest time... I guess I'll have to find some time over the holidays to play around with them... Do you have any live sites where you've implemented the services? |

No nothing live yet.
Check these articles out though, they may come in handy. 2 on Amazon http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/...API1/page1.html http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/...API2/page1.html Just note that the articles are using version 2.0, and Amazon is currently on 3.0. Just means you'll need to change http://soap.amazon.com/schemas2/AmazonWebServices.wsdl to http://soap.amazon.com/schemas3/AmazonWebServices.wsdl And one on Google http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/...eAPI/page1.html I think I even read somewhere that you can even make a little extra cash from Amazon by making your application available for others, if Amazon features it. Something to look into more. |
