Solved, the problem is for top results it appears google is changing the normal div class=g into an h2 class=r. This might affect other onebox results and I may need to fix them as well, but this solves the issue for whois. I've also corrected search result totals to appear once again. So when searching accurate totals should appear before results are displayed. Local has also been corrected to parse "special locations" properly as well.
Get the new script right here and please report any problems in this thread, thanks. Most important to remember, HAVE A FUN! 
Also, for those wishing wikimedia were more than it was, it now can be | Code: | # Customized Wikimedia
# allow customized triggers for special wikimedia pages
# Anything other than 0 will enable and will use the list below.
variable wiki_custom 1
# Custom wiki triggers
# This is used to customize triggers for different wikimedia sites.
# The format is "trigger:wikisite.here"
variable wiki_customs {
"swiki:wiki.sabayonlinux.org"
"gwiki:www.gentoo-wiki.com"
"ed:encyclopediadramatica.com"
"un:uncyclopedia.org"

DOH!~ I've corrected that, thanks for spotting it. And about the props, it was an easy addition and makes the script more versatile with less typing so why not make it a reality. Enjoy.

They did quite more than update their html templates. They changed the entire query. What it does now is use a php backend to retrieve the search results using cookie and referrer fields, which presently i'd need to investigate how those even work (although i do remember reading a post by user concerning this exact issue) before I could add something to fix it. If you leave any of these details out, your returned html merely contains a "searching..." where normally the results appeared (you can test this yourself, do a !game anything. Now check your eggdrop root for a file named ig-debug.txt, contained within is the html with 'searching...' instead of usable results). I would need to question why gamespot would do something to prevent potential free advertising from any and all index/scrape bots? Gamespot must not be getting enough click-through impressions from people scraping their pages  . I've always had direct links to gamespot and every other site scraped appearing within the given results so it isn't blatant theft, it's helping advertise for them imo...
If you can tell me what you think, it would help. Is it immoral and wrong to scrape a website, when it is obvious that website is trying to eradicate scraping? If so, then it wouldn't be just of me to turn this script into something illicit (like heroin) where it's traded more for what it does wrong, then what it does right... If we all are damned and going to hell anyways, then we can soullessly and callously scrape them to death and update to a cookie/referrer approach rather than a simple query. Depends on what the object of this script is which I leave solely up to each and every one of you. The people using the script.

hmm the script is great, but I have a little problem; out of all the features, only a few work for me (google search is gone, wiki, ebay and basically all the good ones ).
Could this be the fault of my shell provider, or my the tcl version I'm currently using?
I'm using incith-google-v1.98s, someone please help... |

Let me explain why with a slight ethics lesson. Websites wish their content to be viewed on their medium. They sometimes take countermeasures to discourage scraping, which is the method of data retrieval this script uses.
For ebay this happens:
I haven't written parsers for the template this new server gives. Notice the search.ebay.com becomes shop.ebay.com, this server uses a new template design not supported at the moment. Only the search.ebay.com template is supported presently.
For google, you may see this:
This means google will only allow you to use its services if you can complete their captcha requirement given on the sorry.google.com page. This is some problem between you and google. The other google based sites may not work either for you because something identifies you as malicious possibly. This is beyond my control, contact google.
For you to even begin to see this debug output you MUST change the debugnick in the config section from 'speechles' to the nickname of your debug admin, your nickname perhaps?
As for the other functions of the script, they should all work except for gamespot. Ganespot uses a new server as well, that requires cookie/referrer fields to disuade scraping. Expect a new version soon with better redirect support for wiki(pedia/media) and a few other things too...

The search url still works and the info is also in the page but just build up different (You can check using Firefox -> View page source). But since I don't understand a lot from TCL (regexp etc dont understand anything of it unfortunatly) I can't help. |

I can't believe you just said that...You fail to understand how eggdrop works. Sure, it works on firefox because firefox can supply the cookie and referrer fields. It DOES NOT work on eggdrop until I supply those requirements. There IS NO search data to search for. There IS ONLY a static "searching..." message. Don't believe me? Check this out! Now where are the results to parse? There aren't any. Do you see what I've been saying all along now?

Test -> Max Payne
The problem is not with referrer, but with javascript ajax result :]
Try disable javascript in your browser and test it.

The above comes from:
http://www.gamespot.com/pages/search/search_ajax.php?q=max%20payne&type=game&offset=0&tags_only=false&sort=rank
When communicating with gamespot, it will send you html data along with a cookie session ID. That html data will be incomplete because it is actually waiting on a php backend server to fill the html request using that ajax get above. Notice the 'search results' appearing at the front?
This means that it is silly to assume that since you can visit the website with a normal web browser and see all the html your bot will be able to do the same. Websites go out of their way to discourage bots, so these cookie sessions and other such nonsense and hurdles put up in our way that we must jump over in order to continue scraping them. Hopefully you understand what I mean.

See the problem? The script merely does a single page load. Which can get the http headers. The script will need to do a second request to the search_ajax.php url filling in the request headers correctly to retrieve any search results. The cookie session is all that matters notice the referring site is egghelp and I still got successful search data in the browser.
Firefox + firebug will allow you to see http headers as shown above (firebug is buggy though so disable it afterwards or it may crash firefox eventually).

That's what I meant too speechles.
