Tools to Find Items
Typically, the first task a customer undertakes is searching for an item.
The following web page from www.amazon.com shows the implementation of this task using,
in particular,
ItemSearch
and ItemLookup requests.

The top entry fields show a drop down menu equal to search indices, and a text entry
box for a keyword. Both of these parameter values are required for an
ItemSearch
request. The result, shown in this page, displays many of the elements returned by the
ItemAttributes response group.
