Using google feed api with php

Question

<?php extract($_GET); $data = file_get_contents("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/feed/find?v=1.0&q=" . $category ); echo json_decode($data); ?> This is giving me an error : Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string

extract($_GET) is very evil then you can use register globals its much easier :D and very deprecated :D — René Höhle

$data is an object, so you can't echo it. You can print_r it to get an idea of its structure. — ceejayoz

try this:

<?php
$data = file_get_contents("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/feed/find?v=1.0&q=".$_GET["query"]);
$object = json_decode($data);

if(count($object->responseData->entries)>0){
    foreach($object->responseData->entries as $entry){
        echo '<pre>';
        print_r($entry);
        echo '</pre>';
    }
}else{
    echo 'no data';
}
?>

you have to call it by http://example.com/thisfile.php?query=my_text
