Ping with php ?
I used to use wordpress which has a built in
ping function which pings various sites when you update
a page or add a new blog etc.

I now write my own sites in php and want to add a ping functionality.
I could do this by using a tool like scrapebox but I want to code
it in so that when I add a new page a list of stites get pinged
about the new url.

for example I have this site which uses sub-domains and when I add
a new subdomain, I want to do the pings
eg with this one:

http://uzman-bilgisayar.simpg.net/

Here is an explanation from Wordpress about what ping does:

WordPress Ping list is a source which send pings to various search engines about your new post. In simple words Whenever you publish a new post or modify an existing post, WordPress send pings to all of the Ping Networks listed in your Ping Services area. So the searchengines will be notified about your new post or modifications, and they will quickly index your post.
and here is a short list of urls that get pinged:

http://blogpeople.net/servlet/weblogUpdates
http://blogping.unidatum.com/RPC2
http://blogpingr.de/ping/rpc2
http://blogroots.com
http://blogs.yandex.ru
http://blogsdominicanos.com/ping
http://blogsearch.google.ae/ping/RPC2

But I don't know how they work - that is what I need to know so
that I can write it into my page update script for my own websites.

Does anyone know about this ?

Thanks
