I have found out how to retun the IP address

Is there any other information such as ISP etc i could use.

Cheers

You can use the IP address to perform a WHOIS lookup, this would could then give you information about the ISP or proxy. You can also use the user agent to obtain information about the users browser and usualy operating system.

Cool, how the crap do i do that?

Hey, at least im honest

[john tindell]

To get WHOIS information via PHP just use sockets from PHP. use fsockopen() to open the connect and use it like any other resource stream. Use the port 43 and just sent the domain name/IP address you want to query...but thinking about this a WHOIS query returns only info about registered domains.

I know you can get information about the user from the IP address, gimmie a while and i'll find out what i was talking about....
