kulpster,

Checked this example again and it doesn’t works anymore Try to use this url “http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&q=query_str” . It’s much simpler and works for me. It returns 4 result at a time, to get next 4 use “start” parameter.

BTW, according to google docs api key is optional for now. If you provide key and some error occurs while searching Google can help work it out

Vira,

Can you explain the endpointURL string? I am trying to use my own google api key in the string but I am getting this back:

{”responseData”: null, “responseDetails”: “invalid version”, “responseStatus”: 400}

thanks.

I’ve recently looked for API to some giant search engine.

And stopped on Yahoo’s API. Reason is simple - they’re provide SOAP and REST access to their engine. More handy approach, eh?
