PHP: Grab Search Engine Results
Have you ever needed to find the amount of results for certain keywords from all three major search engines? (Google, MSN, Yahoo)*?
Well, with this you can find all those figures within one page!
* If you want a new search engine added please reply here with the url.
Demo: http://mattjewell.com/namepros/seresults/ PHP Code:
<?php
/*
if( strlen ( $_GET [ 'keywords' ]) > 0 && isset( $_GET [ 'search' ]))
'<h1>Searching for <em>' . stripslashes ( $_GET [ 'keywords' ]) . '</em></h1>' ;
ob_start ();
$keywords = str_replace ( ' ' , '+' , stripslashes ( $_GET [ 'keywords' ]));
// provider name => (string pattern, search url)
$engines = array( 'MSN' => array( 'Page [0-9] of ([^\.]+) results' , 'http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=' ),
'Google' => array( 'Results <b>[0-9]+<\/b> - <b>[0-9]+<\/b> of about <b>([^\.]+)<\/b> for' , 'http://google.com/search?q=' ),
'Yahoo' => array( '[0-9]+ - [0-9]+ of about ([^\.]+) for' , 'http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=' )
$engines as $key => $value )
preg_match ( "/{$value[0]}/i" , file_get_contents ( $value [ 1 ] . $keywords ), $matches ))
"<strong>$key</strong>: {$matches[1]} results found<br />" ;
"<strong>$key</strong>: No Matches" ;
ob_flush ();
flush ();
$_GET [ 'search' ]))
?>
<? echo $_SERVER [ 'PHP_SELF' ] ?> " method="get">
<?php
}
'You did not enter any keywords' ;
?>
Enjoy!
Matt

I am surprised how few results there are for 'google' on msn.

What's even more intereting is that if we go to msn search manually and search for google, it comes up with a lot more results.
Bug
I will look into later, i must do some work for now however it seems fine for anything other than the word "google". (which is stupid as it should make no difference...)
