Showing alexa using HTML code

[pankaj]

I need to show alexa of a given domain using HTML code in phpld 2.

Let's assume $url as the site url whose alexa I need.

 

[Mr Happy]

you'll have to curl the alexa site and extract the data you want using a regex. Their's bound to be one of these available as I've seen it done on lots of places.

Their's loads but try this one: http://davidwalsh.name/php-alexa-rank-fetcher-xml

I tried tutorial of that type, but it didn't help.

 

[DeLeTeD]

try to follow that exact tutorial, and then post your code with paste bin and then I can help point out your errors if you have any.

 

[Mr Happy]

I tried tutorial of that type, but it didn't help.

Of that type? So you didn't even try the tutorial I posted?

Just use Google pankaj to find it. Their's loads. Try these if your having trouble with the first one:

I added the code in my link-detail.php file.
I added the php5, curl and USAGE part.

The error I get is "Cannot retrieve feed"

 

[DeLeTeD]

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':' in /home/dlkingin/public_html/warez-core.com/link-detail.php on line 15

paste bin the file

Let's concentrate on one alexa script. I was trying others , so that error came.

I am using this now - http://www.matthuggins.com/php-script-alexa-traffic-rank/
I upload the required class.alexa.php file to my root.

And now the alexa should be display in between Pankaj1 and Pankaj2 here - http://www.warez-core.com/details/link-1

The code starts from line 14.

Alright try to replace your current list of php with

<?php
require_once '../class.alexa.php';


  $alexa = new Alexa();
  echo $alexa->getRank("http://www.google.com");
?>

If you upload the class.alexa to the root you must call it up accordingly.

Keep it simple to start and improve as you go.

I have both the files on homepage.

Now new error - http://www.warez-core.com/details/link-2

 

[pankaj]

require_once 'class.alexa.php';
 $alexa = new Alexa();
  echo $alexa->getRank("http://www.wjunction.com");

 

[pankaj]

This code is way too simple to understand, so let's use this out.

<?php
function alexaRank($domain){
    $remote_url = 'http://data.alexa.com/data?cli=10&dat=snbamz&url='.trim($domain);
    $search_for = '<POPULARITY URL';
    if ($handle = @fopen($remote_url, "r")) {
        while (!feof($handle)) {
            $part .= fread($handle, 100);
            $pos = strpos($part, $search_for);
            if ($pos === false)
            continue;
            else
            break;
        }
        $part .= fread($handle, 100);
        fclose($handle);
    }
    $str = explode($search_for, $part);
    $str = array_shift(explode('"/>', $str[1]));
    $str = explode('TEXT="', $str);

    return $str[1];
echo $str[1];
echo "Pankaj";
}
?>

But its printing nothing. See warez-core.com/a.php

Just noticed you never called the function. Also you can't have anything after a return statement.

<?php
function alexaRank($domain){
    $remote_url = '[URL]http://data.alexa.com/data?cli=10&dat=snbamz&url=[/URL]'.trim($domain);
    $search_for = '<POPULARITY URL';
    if ($handle = @fopen($remote_url, "r")) {
        while (!feof($handle)) {
            $part .= fread($handle, 100);
            $pos = strpos($part, $search_for);
            if ($pos === false)
            continue;
            else
            break;
        }
        $part .= fread($handle, 100);
        fclose($handle);
    }
    $str = explode($search_for, $part);
    $str = array_shift(explode('"/>', $str[1]));
    $str = explode('TEXT="', $str);

    return $str[1];
}
echo alexaRank('test.com');?>
