I am doing some work developing a OneBox for a Google Mini. All I
need to do is take a $_GET values from the Mini (in this case,
specifically "query"), format it into a URI to pass off to another
script, get the results from that script in XML, and hand that XML
back off to the Mini. So basically it acts as a go-between, and
simple translator for the initial request.
So, the OneBox sends a request like:
http://www.website.com/isbn.php?query=0123456789
The script turns that into:
http://isbndb.com/api/books.xml?access_key=XXXXXXXX&index1=isbn&value1=0123456789
Then it gets the XML from that and just returns it to the OneBox as
is.
This is my first dive into some actual PHP development work, so I'm
having a slow time getting any real traction to start out, but I
figure if I can get this rolling, it won't be hard to flesh out.
