    what I am trying to do is block an ip after they go to my website, so once a person comes across my site has a look around or even just one page, and then leaves they are blocked and cannot come back a second time. so basically A log would be made with all the user ip's that hit my website that become blocked. I have tried to have a look around on the web but haven't had much luck.

    I am not a programmer and usually just try to pick it up as I go along, any help would be much appreciated.

    This will block the user if his/her IP is listed.

    
$blocked_ips = array('127.0.0.0'); # Array of blocked IPs
if (in_array($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], $blocked_ips)) {
    header('Location: http://www.somewhere.com'); # Redirect the user somewhere
    exit();
}
    PHP:
    You can generate the $blocked_ips array from a result set of a database query or a log file.
