Gentlemen,
Thanks for your previous suggestions.Unfortunately I've been busy with
other
things and I am just getting back to this.
I think I have found a reasonable strategy for searching images. I can
use
this query (siilar to what was suggested by Platonides):
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=search&srn...
Then I can parse the result set and create another query which gets me
the
urls:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=File:Chartre...https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=File:Chartres%20cathedral%202881.jpg%7CFile:Chartres%20cathedral%202880.jpg%7CFile:Chartres%20cathedral%202879.jpg&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url
However, I am still encountering a problem -- commons.wikimedia.orgdoesn't like requests that don't come from a browser. When I put these queries
into
php I get a 403 error. Is there a url where I can search wikimedia programatically?
Please see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User-Agent_policy
regards,
Tim

Roan,
I've looked at search, but it only seems to return names of pages, not images. Is there a way to make it return images?

Files are at namespace 6, which wasn't included in the provided query:
