Adding more tlds to the server array list

At first i want to thank you for publishing and sharing your php whois class. I can tell you that i use it with much pleasure. I have a question, in the file where I can ad more servers to the array for the multiple domain check I want to ad domains like .tv .co.nz etc… but how do I know witch answer the whois server gives me so I can check if it is free or not, and where can I find more whois servers?

Many thanks

welcome @ webdigity laurens!

your english is very good (here are so much non native english speakers )

I wrote this small snippet to test unknown whois servers:

Code:

<?php
function get_whois_data($test_server, $test_domain) {
$msg = "";
$connection = fsockopen($test_server, 43, $errno, $errstr, 10);
if (!$connection) {
$msg = "Can't connect to the server!";
} else {
sleep(2);
fputs($connection, $test_domain."\r\n"); 
while (!feof($connection)) {
$msg[] = fgets($connection, 4096);
}
fclose($connection);
}
return $msg;
}
print_r(get_whois_data("whois.nic.us", "finalwebsites.us"));

this way you get all the information for this domain, next you need to search for the string that gives the information that a domain name is "free" or not...

looks good, I think thats a good base for an Ajax powered whois form or complete whois applications (if you put all the tld's into a list, thhe becomes very long)

thank you for sharing this...

Yes indead, and this information is also very usefull for the server_list.php:
<availstring>no matching record</availstring>

<availstring>no matching record</availstring>

... I thought about to use the XML file in place of the server list...

Could be very handy, than you can read it with PHP or any other application that has xml support
By the way, i noticed you use sleep(2); in the whois class, my multiple whois app was vert slow, after i had deleted sleep(2); it was much quicker. Why do you use sleep(2);?

Why do you use sleep(2);?

can't find the sleep(2) code where did you find it!

I found it in the get_whois_data method:

Code:

function get_whois_data($empty_param = false) {
// the parameter is new since version 1.20 and is used for .nl (dutch) domains only
if ($empty_param) {
$this->whois_param = "";
}
if ($this->tld == "de") $this->os_system = "win"; // this tld must be queried with fsock otherwise it will not work
if ($this->os_system == "win") {
$connection = @fsockopen($this->whois_server, 43);
if (!$connection) {
unset($connection);
$this->msg = "Kan geen verbinding maken met de server!";
return;
} else {
sleep(2); // <--- HERE IS THE SLEEP 2!
fputs($connection, $this->whois_param.$this->compl_domain."\r\n");
while (!feof($connection)) {
$buffer[] = fgets($connection, 4096);
}
fclose($connection);
}
} else {
$string = "whois -h ".$this->whois_server." \"".$this->whois_param.$this->compl_domain."\"";
$string = str_replace (";", "", $string).";";
exec($string, $buffer);
}
if (isset($buffer)) {
//print_r($buffer);
return $buffer;
} else {
$this->msg = "Can't retrieve data from the server!";
}
}

By the way, i'am using a bit of Ajax for the multiple Whois check. If you like it, check the source and just copie if you like

yes you're right I didn't found the sleep...
I'm not sure why I added the sleep there, If you don't have problems just remove it.
