And I bet you all will provide it better and quicker than examiner will.
I made this massive list of Gay and Lesbian parenting books for my site. I'm trying to list every book on it via my brand new Amazon associate affiliation. I've gone to Amazon and copied the HTML for every book, and I've got it in a document. But when I pasted it into examiner, it just reproduced the code. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

O.K., now I feel stupid. For some reason, no doubt age, I wasn't inserting it as a link. So now it's working--sort of. It's a link, but does not show the cute little book thumbnail like it's supposed to. Anyone here successfully done this?

Can you just send me the HTML? Or a link to where it's posted?
I suspect it's because the Amazon links use the Embed tag.

Have you seen any Examiner pages with thumbnails? I didn't know you could do that. I have just seen text links, and that's what I used - I only took out the proper website/affiliate link, not any of the coding that followed.

You can do anything you want, if you know CSS and HTML.

I forgot about the CSS part. I was just thinking of the EASY way of doing it all through Examiner ;)

Thanks, medievalist, I didn't know they used HTML in the Middle Ages. I'll send you one set in a few days when time permits.
