For amazon check this out:

There are also instructions for this in the book, Advanced FileMaker 6 Web Development (which is in the Amazon sidebar on the right right now):

http://www.amazon.com:80/exec/obidos/red...ASIN/1556228600

I don't know that the examples still work, i.e., if Amazon has changed their XML. There are also some small shareware apps which do this (I know Mac ones, like Books, but I'm sure there's PC's also), but I wouldn't know if they could be linked to FileMaker.
