I am appealing to Google Translate, but need help from vBET first

[brubros]

I am making an appeal to Google Translate (API Access Notice - Google Code) but I do not know how to answer their questions, including the following. Could you please help with providing answers so I can pursue directly with Google?

"IP address of your server which is making the requests?" - Is it my server that is making the request?
"Are you using the API server-side or in JavaScrip?" - I don't know how to answer this
"If you are using server-side, what is the HTTP referer used in request?" - does vBET use this?
"please enter a URL where you have the API implemented" - do I provide Google with my URL?
"Are you sure that your requests include an API key, a valid HTTP referer and the userip parameter (for server-side requests)?" - does vBET do this?

1) Yes it is IP of your server
2) You are using api server side
3) It is url to your translated part
4) URL ex(without *)
for api google 1 - wihout key: ht*tp://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/language/translate?v=1.0&format=html&langpair=en|pl&q=welcome
and for api google v2: ht*tps://www.googleapis.com/language/translate/v2?key='your_api_key'&format=html&q=welcome&target=pl

brubrosYou've got the answer from Google? restored work API?

[vBET]

We do not know did burbos got answer. Our own experience - Google first send the message about blocking, but we think that finally they realized that there is some bug because everyone was blocked, now we have it unblocked (we even didn't wrote there) and now if limits are reached we simply get response with information about reached limit. So for us Google is available after blocking without any intervention on our side. Please just check right now googletest on your forum.

This results in my site for the two versions of the script googletest.php

Please for any issue open new thread, we will be glad to help you

[vBET]

Shortly about your last post Vetall - the code is same in case of connection. The differences are only in messages on your side and 2nd code also shows connection time. So the difference in answers is not because use of 2 different scripts, but because those where run in different time.

If you need more help about it then Just as Radek wrote - please open new thread.
