How To Get Google Results Into Our Webpage Without Same Origin Policy

We have own form in our webpage. We want to show google(www.google.com/scholar) results into our webpage. We tried jQuery, Ajax HTML framing (iFrame, frameset) and all of these h

Solution 1:

Google prevents you from doing this. You could set up some server side code to scrape the results but this would almost definitely be blocked by Google. If this suits your needs you can create a form that submits your search to that page and opens it in a new tab like so:

<form action="http://scholar.google.co.uk/scholar" method="get" target="_blank">
  <inputtype="text" name="q">
  <inputtype="submit" value="Search">
</form>

Update:

I mentioned that Google would block the scraping of its services, however I just found the third party library which does that. Not sure on Google's opinion on it though. http://www.icir.org/christian/scholar.html
