I Want to add a search box on my webpage that allows users to check the backlinks for a certain website. For example, they type the name of a site in the search box then it does a google search displying the linking sites to that URL. How would I code a search box field with a search button - then when the user types a url in the search box and presses "go" the script actually runs this google search: Link:www..nameofsite.com -and returns a google search results page Does this make sense? Would this be easy to do? Can someone paste the code in here for me? Thanks!!!

Thanks for this, however I'm wanting a unique code for this, not one pasted from another SEO site. Anyon else?
This script I made two days ago. It might be use to you: http://www.phptricks.com/lesson.php?id=34 Peace,
very nice script! You may want to show people how to supply the $url variable though, like with a form input field
