Google Image Search API

Here’s a demo of Google Image Search API which was included in 65amp.com. The good thing about doing this in Flex or Flash is that the API endpoint has a cross-domain.xml that allows any external domain to coomunicate, hence the app can be completely standalone without roundtrip to proxy server.

   Hi Alex,

   How did you achieve the paging in Image Search using the Google Image Search API? I got the basic image searching down in no time, but I can’t seem to get the paging working. Could you hint me in the right direction maybe?

   Sincerely,
   Tije

   Sorry I have to correct myself, but I’m not using the Ajax Search Api at all, but I use this library: http://code.google.com/p/googleas3api/

   Crazy mistake. I don’t know how I got this thing in my head. Consider these two posts never sent…

   I used the AJAX Search API http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/documentation/reference.html#_intro_fonje, there’s an argument “start” that denotes the start index of the first search result.

   Hope that helps.
