    I have created a page for anyone wanting to know there ip, i use it with a program called "keep me posted" where it reads my external ip and posts it on a website so when traveling i can remotely log into it. thought it mat be use to someone else. Other sites have the html changing all the time so you would need to update the code where it reads the ip in keep me posted, so this is why i created it.

    Additional info about the IP is handy when you are checking someone's other's IP, or when you check IP of not-your-home computer.

    Also, when you're checking your own IP, you might be interested about your internet connection speed ( speedtest.net ).

    Just in case you want to add some appeal to your tool.

    The took looks good simple but there needs to be a small text somewhere that says "this is your IP"

    Also, can it show IPs for proxy users ;) even though it should be remained hidden?

    I use this one by Syndikut scripts allows you to use this via a form from your site also this shows you the whois report along with country of a given ip address - very helpful indeed ;)

    http://scripts.syndikut.org/whois_ip_lookup.html

    example usage: http://scripts.syndikut.org/whois_ip_lookup.html?ip=66.249.72.136

    Aaaah.. Take the code
    <?php
    $url = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
    echo $url;
    ?>
    Save it as a .php file and upload it to a php enabled server.

    <?php
    $ip = isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']) ? $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] : $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
    echo 'Your IP is: '.$ip; ?>
    Code (markup):
    :):)

    Ps... Wouldn't IP config just give you a local address instead of your internet IP? Its a handy little script to have if you want your real world IP

    ahh yea command prompt is good if your on the computer...
    i use a program installed on all my computers that seeks this site of mine works out the ip's for all the computers then uploads them to a server.

    If one of my computers is somehow stolen and gains internet access i will have there ip and the police and follow up with there isp and track them down.

    :)
