Retrieve the page from google for a search string
Hi.
I'd like to insert a specific search word and then submit this query to google.
Then retrieve the number of the result for a specific web page.
For example :
Word : "Experts Delphi source code"
Result : The page "Experts-exchange.com" is in -> Page 3 , result #37
Thanks in advance.

Thanks :)

why? the solution, not clean or beatifull, I know, but certainly speed optimal, short and easy to understand.
consider that almost any other solution (even that of merijnb if there was code tehre) involved parsing, which would mean more oeprations. you can further optimize for string speed tehre but since it's a network connection involved it doesn't really matter since generally it won't be noticeable.
tehre was one time the option of using google api but as I heard some time ago they are not giving the needed google api key anymore whithout which you cannot access some or all of the google api.
not to mention that this way it works on any search engine :P

No ciuly your solution is good, clean and.. pliable. (I think this is a good word)

ha. now I see hom I'm talking to :D
sorry, but I almost never look at the question asker when answering :)
I'm usually pressed by time so all I do is look at the question titile in the filter result, if it looks fast-answerable, I open it and read the question fast and answer even faster.
I never got around to making that utility I talked about since I'm too busy so this makes my life harder here. maybe next year :D
PS: I don't watch SouthPark :)
