    Hey there,

    I am looking for a way to determine location of a user via their IP address or hostname. I need to be able to do this programmatically.

    Does anybody have any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance.

    Sincerely,
    Travis Walters

    This is very easy.

    You can get IP2LOCATION DB from net. Search for it on Google...
    Use that DB and make your script

    http://www.location.com.my/free.asp

    Hope this helps...

    This site is pretty sweet because it gives you a google map of the users location.
