[SOLVED] Whois or domain checking

Hi

I wanna integrate some kind of basic whois process that only checks if a domain is or is not available for registration. I dont care about complete whois information.

Can this be done using some PHP function?

Thanks

not directly, but you can run shell commands with functions like system to get info from a whois program

No need for system functions. You can use this:

I didnt know that this existed. Thanks Nico. I guess I had better go read T&C for business use.
