PHP: Bulk domain availability check! [UPDATED]

This is something i was going to start however i don't really have time, so i have whipped up a quick script for you guys to use on your own site or just for personal use.

The script has been tested quickly tonight as i want to go to bed lol. I hope it is of some use.

Demo: Now offline sorry.

- Added "save results as text file" feature - requested.

- Code shortened

- Added .in support
- Bug fixes

- Other bug fixes (again ;))

<?php
set_time_limit(0);

Cheers YesBrilliant, mattjewell.com is being a little slow right now so it might be acting a bit crap ;)

mtorregiani, i read your post and then forgot about it sorry. I can't seem to find a whois server for .com.es or .es, so i can't add support sorry :(

Can't work with that sorry :P

There is no whois server listed on any site i can find and whois services like whois.sc d not even give a full whois report so i can only assume it doesn't have one :td:

Hmm, no in short :(

Seems .pt does not actually have a whois server, must be in the list by mistake :|

Sorry, all i can do is remove support for it :) (will upload updated version in a while)

Ah - Well then i take that back. I searched for it myself but wasn't able to find one coming to the conclusion it was one of the ccTLDs without one.

Give me a couple of minutes I'll update the script.

Edit: Script updated! .pt support fixed!
