Find Location For IP Address

Hi Friends
I need example code in php that is used to find the location of the obtained remote ip address.

 

Hi Katypeterson.
Do you mean you have already obtained the IP address and want a sample PHP code to trace its geographic location (i.e. details like city, country etc.)?
Here you will find the sample codes:

(I am not a programmer myself, but often try to google solutions for my coder friends.)
Hope this helps.

Hi.
The simple code using find IP adress....

<?php

if (getenv('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'))
{

$IP= getenv('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR');
$CIP = getenv('REMOTE_ADDR');
echo "Proxy IP address is : ".$IP. "(via $CIP)" ;

}

else

{

$CIP= getenv('REMOTE_ADDR');

print"IP address is : $CIP";


}

?>

 

First - learn how to use code or php brackets around your code. Second, that could easily have been reduced to this:

<?php
  echo $IP = (getenv('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR')) ? 'Proxy IP address is:'.getenv('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR').' (via'.getenv('REMOTE_ADDR').')' : 'IP address is: '.getenv('REMOTE_ADDR');
?>

PHP:

One line. However, this does nothing of what the OP was asking for - this only shows the IP-address, it does not provide a location.
