Post a Review from a Remote Site
To integrate adding Amazon reviews into a web publishing system or web site, examine the way Amazon posts information and create a remote copy.
Just as hundreds of sites are integrating with Amazon to provide product data and sales, there are many ways to tap into Amazon’s community. If you’d like to integrate Amazon’s review system into an existing site, you can do so with some simple HTML. By studying the HTML Amazon uses to submit reviews, you can create a generic form that sends reviews to Amazon from any site.

Create a file called remote_form.html containing the following code:
<html>
