Search Engine Page Rank Stats [v2]

[Diesel]

Heres a little admin tool I've put together. This tool will parse out your search engine ranking on Google, Yahoo and MSN for a particular keyword

or key phrase. You can even add multiple keywords to check several at a time. I'm having a small issue with it though. For some reason, it always says 0 for the page rank. I'm hoping someone will look through my code and post a fix.

Actually that's just an array. That's not the problem but at least you tried. :thumbup:

ob_start();

include_once($fetch_url);

$page = ob_get_contents();

ob_end_clean();

use your code to get the contents of a page (from google or wherever) then post those contents into a textbox, and then copy/paste it onto this thread. I want to look at that, I bet that's where the error is coming from.

This part hurts me:

First of all, retreiving content with an include, means it could run whatever code as if it found the <?php ?> tags it will be run on your site!

Also, the quickest way to retrieve content from another page would be:

Now if you need more control over the HTTP protocol you can use the curl library or even the sockets directly but this is kinda overkill.

Thanks Bertrand for the advice. I know this isn't the best coded mod, but it's free. I've tried, and tried, and tried on this mod and can't seem to fix it. Maybe someone can help me find a fix?
