My company are looking to include third party content (an online book
store) to our web site. There will be a search facility but i would like
to know if it is possible to provide a link from a particular subject
matter on our web site to a list of related books on the subject. ie the
search is done in the background as the user clicks a link and returns the
list.
Any ideas welcome of how this would be done.

Hi Mark,
You're content for the bookstore will most likely be stored in a database,
you may want to add a DB field categorizing each item, so in the results
page, you can also add links to related sites based on its categories.
If you want to do something like Amazon's referral engine, this is a bit
trickier...you may need a third-party component.
