When you find a subject area that you would like to generate XML for, look at the web page URI. The browse ID should appear after the string "/tg/browse/-/". Here are some examples of URIs that contain browse IDs:"... <<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/30 (browse ID: 30) <<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/467970 (browse ID: 467970) <<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/602314 (browse ID: 602314) <<"Amazon.com literally has tens of thousands of browse IDs, and they do sometimes change, so it would be impossible for us to list them all in this document. Instead, you should be able to find the browse ID for your particular subject by surfing through our web site. However, Wayne Frazee, one of Amazon.com's external developers (and a key participant in the developer discussion boards), has very kindly put together this list of some of the most popular browse IDs.

This listing is for code that runs in the OPML Editor environment. I created these listings because I wanted the search engines to index it, so that when I want to look up something in my codebase I don't have to use the much slower search functionality in my object database. Dave Winer.
