Connecting Amazon scripts to Search Strings
How can I connect Amazon affiliate scripts (Anaconda, Maxcomm, etc.) to Links search strings, so that when the Links result pages are displayed, they also show the same search query word with the suggestion: Search Amazon for this keyword.... (like it is done at Yahoo).

Any ideas?

Regards!

All you have to do is copy the search strings from other search engines, then replace the keyword you searched for with <%term%>.

For example:

Code:
Search for <a href="http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=<%term%>"><%query%></a> at Yahoo!

Just do the same for Amazon, but replace the keywords with <%term%>.
