Hi coders,
I wrote this piece of code to use for Google searching using daterange
directive. it works ok on local host running IIS and PHP 5.1.2 but when i
test it on my host running php 4.4.4 on linux, $julian_days_from and
$julian_days_to variables don't get assigned any values and therefor they
remain empty!
What is wrong with this code?
Here is the code:
<?php
if ($_POST){
if (empty($_POST['from'])){
$error[]='Please enter From date.';
}
else{
$from=explode('-',$_POST['from']);
$julian_days_from = gregoriantojd($from[1],$from[0],$from[2]);
}
if (empty($_POST['to'])){
$error[]='Please enter To date.';
}
else {
$to=explode('-',$_POST['to']);
$julian_days_to = gregoriantojd($to[1],$to[0],$to[2]);
}
if ($julian_days_from>$julian_days_to){
$error[]='From date can not be greater than To date!';
}
if (empty($_POST['search'])){
$error[]='Please enter your search term.';
}
if (!isset($error)){
$search_ready=explode(' ',$_POST['search']);
foreach($search_ready as $search_ready_val){
$search_term=$search_term.'+'.$search_ready_val;
}
switch($_POST['search_in']){
case ('web'):
$query='http://www.google.com/search?hl='.$_POST['language'].'&q='.$search_term.'+'.'daterange:'.$julian_days_from.'-'.$julian_days_to.'&lr=lang_'.$_POST['language'];break;case ('images'): $query='http://images.google.com/images?hl='.$_POST['language'].'&q='.$search_term.'+'.'daterange:'.$julian_days_from.'-'.$julian_days_to.'&lr=lang_'.$_POST['language'];break;case ('video'): $query='http://video.google.com/videosearch?hl='.$_POST['language'].'&q='.$search_term.'+'.'daterange:'.$julian_days_from.'-'.$julian_days_to.'&lr=lang_'.$_POST['language'];break;case ('book'): $query='http://books.google.com/books?hl='.$_POST['language'].'&q='.$search_term.'+'.'daterange:'.$julian_days_from.'-'.$julian_days_to.'&lr=lang_'.$_POST['language'];break;default:} //header("Location:".$query);}}?><html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us"><title>Google Assistance - Date Rage Search</title><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="keywords" content="google,assistance,search,daterange,seo,linkchecker,meta tag generator,online metric converter,mail search,weblogsearch, search in weblogs,google page rank,pagerank,google hack,google sitemap,site map generator,online tools,seo tools,webmasters"><meta name="description" content="This website helps you use Google betterand faster.

undocumented but powerful feature of Google's search is the ability to search within a particular date range. Before delving into the actual use of date range searching, there are a few things you shouldknow. First, a date range search has nothing to do with thecreation date of the content and everything to do with the indexingdate of the content. If I create a page on March 8, 1999, for instance, and Google doesn't get around to indexing it untilMay 22, 2002, for the purposes of a date range search, the datein question is May 22, 2002.</span></font></p> <p align="left" style="margin: 10px 15px"> <font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt">Second, Googlecan index pages several times, and each time it does so, thedate on it changes. So don't count on a date range search staying consistent from day to day. The "daterange:timestamp" can change when a page is indexed more than once. Whether itdoes change depends on whether the content of the page haschanged.</font></p> <p align="left" style="margin: 10px 15px"> <font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt"> <a target="_parent"href="http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10165_7-6206764-2.html";> More...</a></font></td> </tr> </table> </div> </td> <td valign="top" align="left" rowspan="2" width="14"> </td> <td width="1" height="272"><img src="shim.gif" width="1" height="272"border="0" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" align="left" colspan="12" height="22"><imgname="index_C2_R12" src="images/index_C2_R12.jpg" width="710" height="22"border="0" alt=""></td> <td valign="top" align="left" colspan="3" height="22"><imgname="index_C14_R12" src="images/index_C14_R12.jpg" width="259" height="22"border="0" alt=""></td> <td width="1" height="22"><img src="shim.gif" width="1" height="22"border="0" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="16" height="56"> <table border="0" width="100%" id="table4" height="40"> <tr> <td width="35%"><font face="Tahoma" style="font-size:8pt"> <a href="help.php">Help</a> | <ahref="contact.php">Contact Me</a> | <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com";>GoogleSearch</a> | <a href="policy.php">Site Policy</a> | <a href="other_links.php">Other Links</a></font></td> <td style="border-left: 2px solid #C0C0C0" width="354"><fontface="Tahoma"> <span style="font-size: 8pt"> © AllRights Reserved</span></font></td> <td align="center"><a href="http://www.google.com"target="_blank";> <img border="0" src="images/google_powered.png" width="80"height="15"></a> <a href="http://www.php.net"; target="_blank"> <img border="0" src="images/php-powered.gif" width="80"height="15"></a> <a href="http://www.linux.org"; target="_blank"> <img border="0" src="images/linux_powered.gif" width="80"height="15"></a></td> </tr> </table> </td> <td width="1" height="56"><img src="shim.gif" width="1" height="56"border="0" alt=""></td> </tr></table></div></form></body></html>
