NAME

WWW::Search::Ebay::Category - backend for returning entire categories on www.ebay.com

SYNOPSIS

  use WWW::Search;
  my $oSearch = new WWW::Search('Ebay::Category');
  # Category 1381 is Disney Modern Premiums:
  $oSearch->native_query(1381);
  while (my $oResult = $oSearch->next_result())
    { print $oResult->url, "\n"; }

DESCRIPTION

This class is a Ebay specialization of WWW::Search. It handles making and interpreting Ebay searches http://www.ebay.com.

This class exports no public interface; all interaction should be done through WWW::Search objects.

NOTES

Returns the "first" 200 *auction* items in the given category. I'm not sure what exactly "first" means in this case; YMMV.

It is up to you to determine the number of the category you want.

See the NOTES section of WWW::Search::Ebay for a description of the results.

METHODS
