A Whois search is a search bar that you use for checking for info about domains, like if they are availible or if when they expire.

To add this to your site, it takes two very simple steps...

Step One:
Add this code to the very top of the page...make sure the web page is saved as .php

<? if($site != "") { exec("whois $site", $output, $error); while (list(,$line) = each($output)){ echo $line, "
n"; } } ?>

Step Two:
Now place this code wherever you want the actual search form to appear

<form action="" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="site" value=".COM .NET .ORG">
<input type="submit">
</form>

No doubt that this will come of use for somebody...

Very useful for anyone looking to buy a domain, or get in touch with an owner of a current domain.

Great job Oosband.
