For those of you who haven't seen it yet, I put together an example application based on the new OpenSRS "NAME SUGGEST" API call; it's called "Duke of URL" and can be found at:
http://dukeofurl.biz It's a very simple app that demonstrates NAME SUGGEST in an informal, entertaining way. The user provides a word or phrase, selects a TLD from .com, .net, .org, .biz and .info and clicks a button -- the Duke responds with a list of up to 100 available domain name suggestions. Duke of URL was written in PHP 5 with an eye towards PHP 4 compatibility (in fact, I developed and tested it on my PHP 5-running Mac and it lives on a server with PHP 4). It makes use of Colin Viebrock's OpenSRS-PHP library (available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/opensrs-php/). I've posted the code for Duke of URL online -- just follow the links on the Duke of URL page, or simply use these: .tar.gzip archive: http://developers.tucows.com/demos/dukeofurl/source/dukeofurl-2006-12-01-1.0.tar.gz .zip archive: http://developers.tucows.com/demos/dukeofurl/source/dukeofurl-2006-12-01-1.0.tar.gz I've also started a series of articles on the code behind the Duke of URL that will eventually turn into a "building your own OpenSRS client with PHP" series at the Tucows blog (http://tucowsblog.com).
