Re: [Net-amazon-devel] searching by browsenode

[John L. <gal...@ho...>]

It's working great. Thank you.

 

Do you know where I can find a comprehensive list of every browsernodes/id?


I suppose I could just look on the Amazon site and look at the url's but I remember reading somewhere that the browsenode ids change very frequently. This is a little bit of a concern for me.
