Hi All, I am developing a PHP app for getting the PR of a user specified URL. The trouble is that it is not working on my server (which is a shared server). The response from google says (403-Forbidden and that my server IP does not have permission to issue the request)! However, I tried the same code on another server (a deicated one, with another IP), and it works perfectly. But since there are quite a few apps on the web checking PR (for ex: prchecker.info etc.), I believe, there is a way to override this blocking by Google. (prchecker.info has been around for quite a few years now, and should have been blocked by now - but apparently it works just fine!) Any inputs would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Vj
check this script, it's free http://blog.ericbruggema.nl/2008/06/13/php-gratis-pagerank-check-script-met-meerdere-servers/ it should work on all servers and it uses multiple servers to check pagerank. Don't mind the dutch language, just copy and paste the code and check it out yourselve!
Hello EricBruggema, Thanks a million for helping me solve the issue. Your script is working fantastically well. I've made a slight correction in the script, i.e. to stop querying once a PR is obtained. Thanks again. Vj.
