PHP scripting to use search engine

Question

I'm making a simple website with a form where a user enters a word and then I take that word and google it using a php script and displaying the results. How would I be able to do this? or where would I get a script to do this?

Answer 1

First, as quick solution, you should redirect your users to Google's result page.

When your sript receives the search term, it may

• change spaces to "+" sign,
• append it to the following URL: http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Aexample.com+ (change example.com to your domain),
• redirect to it.

Example: http://www.google.com/search?site=&q=site%3Astackoverflow.com+banana

Answer 2

I'm fairly sure reusing their results as you want to do is against their Terms of Service.

Why not simply create a form that redirects to the Google result page? Here is a tutorial on how.

You would look for Google Site Search - http://www.google.com/sitesearch/
