I'm feeling lucky...

Hi, and thanks for a well written script

I was wondering if it was possible to add a "I'm feeling lucky" botton to the search form, like google uses.

It don't have to be a button, but is there a way to pop-up a window where the user automaticly is taken to the nr 1. search result url?

Thanks for all help...

Hi. One way do it this would be to pass a variable $feeling_lucky to search_function.php and then after the following code:

PHP Code:


			
if ((is_array($final_result)) && (count($final_result) > 0)) {

    arsort($final_result);

add something like the following:

PHP Code:


			
if ($feeling_lucky == true) {

    // query database to get number one $lucky_site

    header("Location: $lucky_site");

    exit();

}
