You may also can add a category to get more specific results. To use the script you just need to add <span class=”easy_wiki”> and </span> tags around the word you want to get info about.
In order to speed up the work process, the Easy Wikipedia API script uses cache and every search is kept locally on your server for a certain period of time.
You can choose to use a localized version of wikipedia, like French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Swedish or Dutch, thus the retrieved content is taken from the articles written in the specified language
A css styling is used for the design and its quite easy to change the color and overall look.
