Getting several contents of URL in PHP using CURL, Google CSE

Question

I'm working on my project of using Google CSE. At this step I'm writing codes to retrieve JSON results from it. Here's the code:

<?php
function cURL($url, $ref, $p) {
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $ref);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
if ($p) {
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $p);
}
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
if ($result) {
    return $result;
} else {
    return '';
}
}

if (isset($_GET['keyword'])) {
$keyword = $_GET['keyword'];
} else {
echo 'salah bro!';
}
$cseNumber = 'aaa'; // Key for the API thing
$key = 'bbb'; //Key for Nofriani's account: sorta a password
$start = '1';
$file = cURL('https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=' . $key . '&cx=' . $cseNumber . '&q=' . $keyword . '&siteSearchFilter=i&alt=json&start=' . $start, 'https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=' . $key . '&cx=' . $cseNumber . '&q=' . $keyword . '&siteSearchFilter=i&alt=json&start=' . $start, null);
echo $file;

?>

It worked perfectly and I got 10 first results of Google CSE. Unfortunately, the API restricts that only 10 results can be retrieved in bulk. Now, I intend to take 100 results in one results page (not in separated 10 page), by doing a looping. I added this:

$start= '';
$file = cURL('https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=' . $key . '&cx=' . $cseNumber . '&q=' . $keyword . '&siteSearchFilter=i&alt=json&start=' . $start, 'https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=' . $key . '&cx=' . $cseNumber . '&q=' . $keyword . '&siteSearchFilter=i&alt=json&start=' . $start, null, $start);
return $file;

function getResult() {
    for ($i = 0; $i <= 90; $i+=10) {
        $file .= cURL($url, $ref, $p, ($i + 1));
        for ($j = 0; $j < 10; $j++) {
            echo $file;
        }
    }
}

?>

But it didn't work just like it did. I tried some tips here: PHP How can I open several sources using curl? But it didn't work as well, :( Can anyone please help me solve this? Thanks..

You forgot so many things like parameter and concatenation. Proper function will be like this

Update

function getResult($key,$cseNumber,$keyword) { // parameter added
    for ($i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++) {
        $file = cURL('https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=' . $key . '&cx=' . $cseNumber . '&q=' . $keyword . '&siteSearchFilter=i&alt=json&start=' . $i, 'https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=' . $key . '&cx=' . $cseNumber . '&q=' . $keyword . '&siteSearchFilter=i&alt=json&start=' . $i, null); // . removed from here
        echo $file;
    }
}
