    On reviews.cnet.com, they have an affiliate links section on the right sidebar for each review they do. Is this somehow done using mysql? I want to do the same thing for my electronic reviews site. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    It certainly could be - I don't know much about databases but I'm assuming you could set something up like

    Name|Price_Range|Store|Price|Stock

    This can be done via
    1) MySQL
    2) API from stores
    3) Regex scrapping
    4) RSS
    5) Curl

    all php

    Ahhh I see. Looks like Amazon has a unique web developers program to implement that feature. Do you have any experience doing that?
