As far I know, Google doesn't provide API for searching images, so you have to dig out information from the HTML pages returned by the normal Google Image Search service. You need some well formed regex expressions and nothing else (until Google changes the format of the HTML document). Unfortunatelly XPath cannot be used since the returned page is not an XHTML document. There is a sample project in C#: http://www.codeproject.com/cs/library/google_image_search_api.asp Attila _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
