There's also some (kind of confusing) documentation as part of that download. <br /><br />Inside http://mturk.s3.amazonaws.com/CLTSource/aws-mturk-clt.tar.gz, once you open it up, there is a 'samples' folder and an 'external_hit' folder within that. <br /><br />external_hit.input has a list of the different variables you want to use in different versions of your hit. external_hit.question has a template HTML page that will become your external hit (and show up inside an iframe in the amazon mturk page). <br /><br />You define your variables in external_hit.input and then mention them in the question template. For example, external_hit.input has a variable called "urls" and then in external_hit.question, there's something that says $(urls) that will get filled in automatically with 'google.com' or 'yahoo.com' or something from the list described in the .input file. <br /><br />My biggest trouble with it (when I wrote this post) was that I wanted TWO variables. And I couldn't tell what if the different things I tried worked or not because of point #4 above. <br /><br />Since then, I've actually watched people use Boto to post external hits: http://code.google.com/p/boto/ It might be way easier than what's described above.
