The search engine sites catalog and index public Web sites so they can be listed when the users search for information that eventually may be found such sites. For this reason, the search engine sites are one of most important source of visitors of public Web sites.

Although many search engine sites crawl the Web and automatically find new sites soon or later, it may help new sites becoming visible to search engine sites much sooner if the new sites are manually submitted for cataloging or indexing.

This class provides a solution that may help a new site be submitted very quickly to many search engine sites all at once, and so gain visibility much sooner rather than later.

Arrange these data in the format given below. Format of the dat file is; enginename, fullengineurl, method, success string, user-agent, referer If the method is POST, then you have to look at the engine form source. write down each variable-value pairs and join them with '=' and attach it with target url using '?'. eg. http://www.some-good-engine.com/add_url.php?url=[URL]&email=[EMAIL] NOTE: the submitted url and email are replaced with [URL] and [email] variables placeholders in the data file are [url] = full url that is submitted [email] = email of the user [ip] = IP of the user (not using in current version) [description] = meta description (not added in current version) [keywords] = meta keywords (not added in current version) Comment lines start with charecter # TROUBLESHOOTING : FILE INFO : readme.txt - this file licence.txt - GNU Public Licence SubmitForce.class.php - SubmitForce class lib index.php - submission starter submit.php - submitter _config.php - SF configurtion options submitforce.gif - logo submitforce.css - default stylesheet Greetz: Lot of people to say a thanx. anyway special regards to Snoopy at http://snoopy.sourceforge.net/ it really made me think not to write a network client anymore.
