Hello Mathias,

you're right, except that i retrieve the html-page from amazon and parse 
it with regular expressions.
Ok, now i know, that i'm on the right way. I haven't figured out yet, 
how to interact with the tceform, how to start the needed action and how 
to fill in the values. Perhaps i'm too dumb for it.

bang - there i'm gone
