I've been coding a Pay-Per-Click search engine in PHP for the past month, and my client is currently asking for another feature to be installed that I am stuck on. I have been backlisting results through other Pay-Per-Click search engines that have a xmlcrawl page that is used for other sites to backlist.
But now my client is wanting me to remove the PPC links and have our backlist come from DMOZ.org. I know the URL I submit to for the search results, but I can't quite figure out the rest. Anyone know of any good example code that submits a query to dmoz, and returns search results so I can put them in my site array?
There's really just one way to use the ODP directory listings legally, and for free:
[dmoz.org...]
There are some scripts at sourceforge which help using and customizing the dump. Good luck!
