Backlinks [en]

1. The backlinks script is written! Much faster than I expected. Just stuck
   with some cosmetic issues. Expect a new page in the coding section soon!

2. y a qq chose qui ne marche pas 🙁

   je vais voir le truc des espions et nettoyage ordi.

   merci.

   tu connais http://www.cexx.org/adware.htm et
   http://www.privacy.net/analyze/
   worth a look.

3. If you want to give me a hand, I’m stuck with this part: read the first x
   lines of a remote page and output the text in between the tags into a
   variable.

4. Next step: collect google search terms. That will be fun!

5. Reading a web page with php is easy !
   $page=readfile(“http://www.disenchanted.com/dis/technology/xanadu.html”);
   will get you the source of the page.

   (another solution is to use system(“wget…”), which is a safer solution
   since wget will handle retry and timeout for ya)

   To parse $page,
   use regexp or a xml parser,
   to extract what you want (title,
   maybe the <link rel=”index” to catch the permalink
   and the <link rel=”alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” to catch the
   RSS feed are obvious candidate)

   Regexp are usually a better solution since HTML is not often valid xml

   You can also try to use preg_split to find the text before and after the
   link that caused the backlink activation.

   The concept of x lines is not obvious with html source…
   you can try to catch the content of the first <p> </p>
   or the first sentence (a sentence ends with !?. and a space)

   To remove all markup, use preg_replace
   see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php for the code

   Another source of help might be Biz, from Niutopia, since he has some perl
   code to do the same thing (grabbing title and some text about it)

6. not sure if this is the best, but it’s working! (not sure either how the
   php code will come out with this comments script):

   $referrer_page =
   implode(”,file(“http://www.disenchanted.com/dis/technology/xanadu.html”));
   preg_match(‘!]*>(.*)!’, $referrer_page, $array_of_matches);
   $referrer_title=$array_of_matches[1];

   Actually, readfile spits the whole thing out on the page without waiting
   for me to tell it to do so.

7. Bonjour dans les etoiles, il a l’air bien ce script, mais ne veut pas de
   moi :), on dirait que c’est le titre qui ne passe pas, peut etre a cause
   de l’apostrophe ? “…J’ai arrete”
   @ un autre jour

8. Les referrers s’affichent seulement après au moins deux visites de deux ip
   différentes. Le tien s’affiche maintenant. Je vais mettre manuellement le
   nom dans la base, c’est vrai qu’il y a eu un blème! (apostrophe ou serveur
   bizarre, je sais pas…)
