google image dwnloader

[jsader]

Greetings,

I've been looking for an easy way to download images from google images using a php script.  I happened upon one such script but upon running it I recieve the following error;

imgurl="+(b.b.indexOf("://")<0?"http://":"")+b.b+" FAILED  ???

I'm running PHP 5 in windows vista as well as in Ubuntu 7 and recieve the same error.

I was hoping someone could look at the script and tell me why the error is occuring. I've already tried contacting the author but had no response. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

John
