Question by unicode704: How to check if domain name is in existence (asp/php/scripting language)?
Buddy of mine signed up as an affiliate in a domain name brokering company. He’s looking for a code snippet that would check to see if a requested name is already in existence (and therefore if he can sell it) Wish I could help but I’m cluless when It comes to web tech.
