    Hi,
    I want to use Yahoo API with PHP to count the number of pages indexed of a given site. But I really don't know anything about using API's...
    If anyone knows how to count the number of pages indexed using php, please show me how to do this or if you know of a tutorial, then please give me a link.
    A code example would be extremely useful.

    I searched google and yahoo for yahoo api tutorials but found nothing very useful.
    Thank you for helping me! :)

    Read the API docs, everything you need to know are in there. But if you don't know PHP well, it'll be a nightmare.

    Hi,
    I downloaded the zip from developer pages and uploaded example 4 in php to my host. Then when I called YahooSearchExample.php, it asks for a zip code. What to enter here?

    Additionally it also shows an error, "call to undefined function".

    I know PHP fairly well. The code in those files is understandable but I am not sure about the 2 things I mentioned above. (zip code and error message.)
    How can I solve this?
    Thank you! :)

    Thank you
