PHP domain name check

Sep 27th, 2009

Hai,

I had developed a web site. In that website I need to add a facility to check for the domain name availability. I am a PHP programmer. I need to check for .com, .net, .info, .co.in only.

Please help me how to do this.

Thanks
Rajeesh

Try this:

It's free, but requires attribution. Ajaxified - looks nice.

You can use gethostbyname().

eg:

 PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
if (gethostbyname('example.com')) {
  echo 'Domain exists';
} else {
  echo 'Domain does not exist';
}
if (gethostbyname('example.com')) {
  echo 'Domain exists';
} else {
  echo 'Domain does not exist';
}

First let me say welcome to daniweb. And when posting new questions in future, please post a new topic unless they relate to a recent topic which in this case it does not. At least it is better than bumping a 5 year old topic. So as for the problem (making forms), since how it is one of the basics of php, I would suggest following this tutorial. Basically you make a html form and set method=post and action=page.php Then in page.php you place the php code to process the code and the data is stored in the $_POST array/variable. The tutorial should explain it all and a google search will show more. If your confused just let me know.

Try not to bump 10 year old threads as it can be really annoying.
