Hi there,

Can anybody tell me how to get this kind of domain checker used on this site? (At the top right).

If you want to find the status of a domain name outside your WHMCS envirnoment, you could use the domainwhois API-function. For more information, see: http://wiki.whmcs.com/API:Domain_WHOIS

Hi m00,

Can you give me some example html because I don't understand how to use it?

If you want to fully integrate it in your own website, you could try:

<?php
$extenties 	= array("nl","com","co.uk","sc"); // Allowed extensions

if(isset($_GET['domein']) AND preg_match('/[^.]+\.[^.]+$/', $_GET['domein']))
{
$domeinnaam	= urlencode($_GET['domein']);
$domeindeel = explode(".", $domeinnaam, 2);

if(in_array($domeindeel[1], $extenties))
{	
	$ch = curl_init();
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "*** URL TO YOUR WHMCS ENVIRONMENT ***/includes/api.php");
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2); 
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 100);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array("username" => "*** WHMCS ADMIN USER ***", "password" => md5("*** WHMCS ADMIN PASS ***"), "action" => "domainwhois", "domain" => $domeinnaam));
	$data = curl_exec($ch);
	curl_close($ch);

	$data = explode(";",$data);

	foreach ($data AS $temp)
	{
		$temp = explode("=",$temp);
		$results[$temp[0]] = @$temp[1];
	}

	if($results['status'] == "available")
		$result = "<b>".$domeinnaam."</b> is free for <a href=\"whmcs/cart.php?a=add&domain=register&sld=".$domeindeel[0]."&tld=.".$domeindeel[1]."\">registration</a>.";
	else
		$result = "<b>".$domeinnaam."</b> is already taken. You can <a href=\"whmcs/cart.php?a=add&domain=transfer&sld=".$domeindeel[0]."&tld=.".$domeindeel[1]."\">transfer</a> it if you're the owner .";
}
else
	$result = "<b>".$domeinnaam."</b> is not available for registration/a transfer.";
}

echo "<form method=\"get\" action=\"".$_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"]."\">\n";
echo "	<input type=\"text\" name=\"domein\" /> \n";
echo "	<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Check\" /><br />\n";
echo "	".@$result."\n";
echo "</form>\n";
?>

Don't forget to change the WHMCS API URL, user and password.
