I know html, I dont know PHP. I needed a script to log IP's to a text file, I found a php script that does it. I don't understand HOW to use it. I put this in a text file, it is SUPPOSED to put the logged IP in the IPS.txt file, but it doesn't. This is the exact code of my html file with the PHP embedded. What do I need to do?

Well, when I run the script. (When I open the webpage) There are no errors, the page loads and displays fine. When I open the IPS.txt which is SUPPOSED to contain the ip logs it displays this
<HTML>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
I didnt put this in the file, I just created a blank file. However, it still doesn't place the ip's in the IPS.txt file. This is the only part of the program I am concerned with to. I only need to be able to log the IP's. Do you have any more ideas? I don't know anything about PHP, I just cut and pasted it into my html code.

Well, I tried what you said, and several hundred variants. I still didn't get it. The counter counts the number of visits and no I dont recieve an email. Any other ideas?

Yeah forget that script...It's doing more than you need.
<?php
$file="myfile.txt";
$outfile=fopen($file,'w');
$line=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."\n";
fputs($outfile,$line);
fclose($outfile);

Whoops, my apologies. 'w' should be 'a', or each address will overwrite the previous one.
(w for write, a for append)

Dont know if you've changed this or not, but towards the top, mail_update is still set to zero...
$mail_update = 0; // 1 enables, 0 disables e-mail update
it needs to be one in order to reach the mail command.

Thank you guys so much for your help. This is the best and most help I have ever recieved from the programming forum. Well, if you are interested in what was wrong, for future reference. I use a free web host (www.angelfire.com) And in an effort to make a few $$$ they diable Perl and CGI, you have to pay for it extra. Thats why these scripts are working. You have helped a great deal though, as I do have another web host that I can use CGI and Perl on. So, thanks so much. You have helped ALOT!
