I can't find this 200-page compilation published by DC Comics. It is from 2000 and is a reprint of JLA issues 34-41. Is it on this site?

it's here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/jla/6trade_paper%20back/sjqxir
it's under the JLA 1997-2006 series, under the trade paperback tab, and is #6. That's how many TPBs are filed, under the regular series of the volume they reprint, and not listed in the search engine by the title of the story, so using World War III in the search turns up nothing.
also, for future use, posts like these go best on the Help Locating/Identifying OR the Database/Missing Issue board, as that's what you want to do. and they may get seen/answered faster too.

Thanks for helping me find that. Next time I'm lost I'll make sure to post in the right forum. I'm still not sure how find something like that book in the general search. To me, they're all just 'comics'. What should I have used to search in the title? I definitely would never have considered putting in 6 as an issue number since that doesn't appear on the book (that I can see).

normally, sorta, you can use the dropdown menu for the Comic Type field, and choose Trade Paper Back or sometimes similar stuff is under Softcover. So you'd just use JLA for the title (as many of these TPBs are not indexed by the story title itself with that search method), then choose the trade paperback Comic Type choice and hit search.
BUT you'll also get results for the regular series that HAVE TPBs, not the TPBs list itself, so you then have to know which series you want (whatever volume the TPB reprints stories from, so as noted that would be the 1997-2006 JLA series), go to that series' listing, then click on the Trade paperback TAB above the issue results. The Issue Type menu is fairly recent, so they don't have everything findable under all those choices yet. But when they don't have it listed at all, it makes it really hard to find 
And you can use the top Price Guide menu to search by Story Arc too, but that's still in progress and there's many to add yet, and JLA WWIII isn't on there yet (even just using World War).
there's lots of quirks with the search that are not intuitive, so see this thread for my search tips (4th post down):

that will help, and when you can't find something at all, then post in either of the 2 forums about it.
