If I understand correctly, you want some sort of book database that you can browse through. This would tell you the seller so that you could do a batch purchase, right?<br />
<br />
But this leads me to ask...why not fill up your shoping cart and then buy. What is the difference?

I am looking to see if someone has any programming ideas for a specific project. &nbsp;I teach and buy lots of used books from Amazon. &nbsp;The books are always used and each one has a specific group of sellers. &nbsp;I would like to minimze shipping by buying the most books from the fewest sellers. &nbsp;So, I am looking for a way to get at web page data in an automated fashion. &nbsp;In a perfect world, I would like to cycle through several books and their sellers and downlod this information. &nbsp;I can then play with the data in a spreadsheet to minimize the number of sellers. &nbsp;The development langauge is not a critical component - I can bumble my way through most.<br />

Surfing Amazon intelligently

Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, and social network services using a wide variety of languages and standards, including the familiar HTML, JavaScript and jQuery, ASP and ASP.NET, PHP, ColdFusion, CSS, PHP, Flex and Flash, but also the implementation of a broad list of standards including XML, WSDL, SSDL, VoiceXML and many more.
