SYNOPSIS
use Net::Amazon;
use Net::Amazon::Request::BrowseNode;
my $ua = Net::Amazon->new(
token => 'YOUR_AMZN_TOKEN'
);
my $req = Net::Amazon::Request::BrowseNode->new(
browsenode => 30,

# Response is of type Net::Amazon::Response::BrowseNode
my $resp = $ua->request($req);
DESCRIPTION
"Net::Amazon::Request::BrowseNode" is a class used to submit node
search requests to the Amazon web service.
The node to search for is specified in the "browsenode" parameter. The
browse node ID is a number that corresponds to a general subject area
of Amazon.com.
To find browse node IDs, the best way is to visit the "browse" area of
the various product lines at Amazon.com. When you find a subject area
that you would like to generate XML for, look at the web page URL. The
browse ID should appear after the string "/tg/browse/-/". Here are some
examples of URLs that contain browse IDs:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/30 (In this example, the
browse ID = 30)
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/467970 (In this example,
the browse ID = 467970)
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/602314 (In this example,
the browse ID = 60231
Please be aware that some nodes cannot be used with a BrowseNodeSearch.
(The vast majority of them can, but you may run across a few that
simply will not work). It is also important to point out that from time
to time, some browse nodes are deprecated or are changed without
notice.
The catalog to search in is specified in the "mode" parameter, typical
values are "books", "music", "classical" or "electronics".
An optional "keywords" parameter may be added to filter the results by
that keyword.
Upon success, the responses' "properties()" method will return a list
of "Net::Amazon::Properties::*" objects.
METHODS
new( browsenode => $nodeID, mode => $mode [, keywords => $keywords] )
Constructs a new "Net::Amazon::Request::BrowseNode" object, used to
query the Amazon web service for items in a particular category
(node) in the mode (catalog) specified.
