Nice one - wanted to check this was the appropriate place to post it. Search attached. 
This is the first search I've done myself so there's a few comments to remind me of 
things - they might be surplus to others' requirements. Also, I found that either the 
input fields or the document.[form] variables seemed to remain set between consecutive 
searches, so I included a simple clear-and-default section. If there's a better way, 
please let me know.

Dave.

Search for used books at abebooks.com

Switches:

  /author   -  Search for author's name
  /title-  Search for book's title
  /keywords -  Search by keywords (most general search)
  /location -  Restrict results to a geographical location (three-letter ISO country code, or 2-letter US-state code)
  /uk   -  Restrict results to books in the United Kingdom (shortcut for "/location gbr")
  /tweak-  Don't go to results - go to the Advanced Search page to tweak the search options


Important!

  Use spaces to separate switches from their their values. Do NOT use a colon. It works like this so you can specify multi-word names and titles. For example:


      use abe /a adams /t guide galaxy
      NOT abe /a:adams /t:guide galaxy


Note

  The default ("reading copy") search options are as follows (if you want a different search type, use /tweak):
Sort by lowest price, any location, any binding, any edition, don't care about it being signed, don't care about dustjacket,
  no minimum price, no maximum price, 50 results per page, Boolean searching off


Examples:

  abe /author heidegger /title "being and time"
  abe /a adams /t guide galaxy /uk   
  abe /k blacksmithing /a andrews /l or
  abe /a levinas /l fra /tw

[DQSD-Users] abebooks.com search

2004-04-16 Thread David Golding
Hi there,

Thanks for making it so easy to extend DQSD - it's a fantastic little app! I
searched around but I couldn't find a search for used books at abebooks.com,
which is a site I use regularly. So I've coded a search myself. The best
feature is that it allows the user to specify location requirements -
functionality I've been wanting for years. Would anyone be interested in
this search?

Kind regards,

Dave.
