Formating NIC Whois output

[Anon]

Hi all!

I've searched for hours on net for even the clue but no luck : (

Can anyone explain (or give url) how can I format the output of a whois query?! To be more specific I need only from Network Solutions...

I get all the data from whois, but they are all one after another and I have well seen that for example by NS self it's sorted out very nicely...

Any help is appreciated!

Thanx
Alex

What type of inquiry are you doing? Post the code...

Try saving the results in an array and then start working on the content of the array with regular expressions...

Hi,

this is the code:

Function RegInfo( $domain ) {
$registry = "whois.nsiregistry.net";
$fp = fsockopen( $registry,43,&$errno,&$errstr,10 );
if( !$fp ) return FALSE;
fputs( $fp,"$domain\r\n" );
while( !feof($fp) ) {
$data = fgets( $fp,128 );
if( ereg("Registrant:",$data) )
$info[registrant] = trim( str_replace("Registrar:","",$data) );
}
}
fclose( $fp );
return $info;
};

-- remark --
code was not made by myself, but it is result of copy/paste/modify for my use
-- remark --

I supply the domainname from another page, but I get empty page as a result!? The one and only thing I need is registrants name, for example:

Domain: example.com

Registrant:
Example Company
Street xx
City etc

All I need is to get the ragistrants name (Example Company) as result and put in in text box!

But I can't do it : (

PLEASE HELP!

Regads,
Alex

Hi,

You should notice tho, that if you do a query on rs.internic.net for example, you should do a 2nd lookup on the domain at the correct registar whois server.

For example:

whois [e-mail]
[rs.internic.net]

Whois Server Version 1.3

Domain names in the .com, .net, and .org domains can now be registered
with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net
for detailed information.

Domain Name: PIETJE.COM
Registrar: TUCOWS, INC.
Whois Server: whois.opensrs.net
Referral URL: http://www.opensrs.org
Name Server: NS2.TERA-BYTE.COM
Name Server: NS.REDIRECTION.NET
Name Server: NS3.TERA-BYTE.COM
Updated Date: 12-feb-2002

Last update of whois database: Fri, 24 May 2002 04:53:58 EDT <<<

The Registry database contains ONLY .COM, .NET, .ORG, .EDU domains and
Registrars.

And the 2nd whois:

whois [e-mail]
[rr-n1-tor.opensrs.net]
Registrant:
Pietje bekske
Browert
vught, nb 6578jn
NL

Domain Name: PIETJE.COM

Record Created on 12-Apr-2000.

Domain servers in listed order:
NS.REDIRECTION.NET 216.234.161.13
NS2.TERA-BYTE.COM 216.234.161.12
NS3.TERA-BYTE.COM 204.209.56.2

Then, make some sort of counter, that increases after Registrant: and then for each count lets say, you want the adres of the company, if ($counter==3) { print $address; }

Hope this helps a bit more.

Cheers,
