Online domain name search tag/tool

Coldfusion Tag/Tool for Domain Name searches.

----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more ----- You would have to find someone who offers an API method for purchasing domains, then you just write your own code to integrate into your current shopping cart.
