The trailer function sounds great. Would it be possible to return the idmb final movie page link ie:

imdb.com/title/tt0814255/

??

That's easy:


if(@preg_match('~<p style="margin:0 0 0.5em 0;"><b>Media from&nbsp;.*?href="/title\/(.*?)".*?</p>~s', $this->page, $this->matches))
{
echo http://www.imdb.com/title/'.$this->matches[1].';
}
else if(@preg_match('~<td valign="top">.*?href="/title\/(.*?)".*?</td>~s', $this->page, $this->matches))
{
echo http://www.imdb.com/title/'.$this->matches[1].';
}

This too works great,but I have a request if you can help me.
I want to make a movie search engine , where user can search any movie they want.
after search I display all the relevant results and if user selects one of them I display the movie detailed information on my own website not redirect to IMDB page, basically use other movie website data.
Display all the data incl title,image,cast,director etc
I have explored few options but IMDB doesn't have API I have not got too much success.
Please help on this one too

Do you have any idea how can you make a torrent search engine like http://www.torrentz.com. If yes, then your problem is solved.

If possible please rate the package.


Thanks

I believe IMDB does provide it's API. Can you check that again and let me know.

No the IMDB doesn't provide an API.
I have no idea on how to make a search engine like the one you mentioned.
I know php but no XML.
