Why is my WHOIS response not the same as when I check it on the website?
This is my code to check WHOIS for Google:
<?php
function checkDomain($domain_check,$server)
{
// Open a socket connection to the whois server
$con = fsockopen($server, 43);
if (!$con) return false;
// Send the requested doman name
fputs($con, $domain_check."\r\n");
// Read and store the server response
$response = ' :';
while(!feof($con))
{
$response .= fgets($con,128);
}
echo $response;
fclose($con);
}
sleep(5);
$domain_name = "google";
$tld = "com";
$server = "whois.verisign-grs.com";
checkDomain($domain_name.".".$tld,$server);
?>
And this is my response:

Then I checked WHOIS for Google https://www.whois.net.
The response from https://www.whois.net has Creation Date: 15-sep-1997.
The response from my code does not have Creation Date, how can I get it from my code?
