PHP, tell if a site is on Dmoz

[Ninjakreborn]

Is there a way that someone knows of to check the DMOZ directory for a specific site (dynamically) without having to create a site stripper?  Or is there currently no way to do that?

If you want to check manually, just use the following:

 

http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=domain.com

 

Of course, substitute domain.com for whatever domain you want to check. For example:

 

http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=phpfreaks.com

 

 

Are you after a PHP script that will do the above dynamically and return a value?

 

You could take the above link and create a PHP script that will return a value based on whether a value was returned or not.  Give a bit more info on what you're trying to do exactly so we can post better ideas/code. Thanks!

To build on what JsusSalv said, all you'd have to do is use filegetcontents, curl, or anything that will return the html from DMOZ, and then use a regular expression to search for your confirmation or lack of.

 

DMOZ, ha!
