How do I create a Search widget that searches within the Books category?

To restrict search results to a specific Amazon.co.uk category, add the following parameter to the widget template:

1. SearchIndex='INDEX_VALUE'
Replace INDEX_VALUE with a specific Amazon.co.uk category. For instance, SearchIndex='Books' returns results from the Books category only. If you want to allow your users to pick a search category from a drop-down, add SearchIndex='DropDown' to the widget template.
