 * My first question is are variables used in forms Global and can you get their
   values with the GET_$ command?
 * My second question is how do I call the amazon_api.php file and then save the
   results in a table so they can be posted.
 * I would also like to add a buy now with embedded affiliateid – is all this possible?

 * Not in WordPress, no. Is this related to a specific plugin?

 * Maybe. BUT, it’s $_GET, not GET_$. If the form is submitted through a GET request
   you can use $_GET, but if it’s sumbitted through a POST request (they are different)
   you will need to use $_POST.

 * That depends totally on how you’re using that file. Is it in something that you’ve
   written, or a specific plugin or theme?

 * Yes. As to how to do it… we’d need a lot more info then this.
