Greetingz! I've new to web development, and have made a submit an email form using the standard form in html scrpt. Sadly, I need to email with the users IP address. This is what I've come up with to display the IP address, but when I check it with dreamweaver I see nothing, nor do I see anything on my server when I upload it. Any ideas appreciated. This is the script:
888888888888888888888888888888888888888888<?
echo "$REMOTE_ADDR";
?>
<?php echo $REMOTE_ADDR; ?>
<?
$hst = $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"];
$uri = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
$rmt = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];
$br = $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"];
echo "Your IP address reflects as : $rmt \n
\n The page you requested was: $uri \n
\n The browser you are using is $br";
?>
88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888
im trying to use it here if you wish to see it:
http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~md103/addMe.htm
Thanx,
Michele
UPDATE! I have discovered what was wrong. Im posting this for other who might be in my same headcase. The file addme.htm should be renamed to addme.Shtml. the S for server side includes.

Umm except you displayed your own host's IP address.
look 146.169.1.10 ... found
Name : linnet.doc.ic.ac.uk (.UK | United Kingdom)
Address : 146.169.1.10Also, you don't have to use .shtml. You can upload an .htaccess file to your root, containing this line (if your host allows it to be used):
XBitHack on
That will allow you to parse standard .html files as if they were .shtml, by CHMOD-ing the files you wish to be parsed as Owner = rwx.

REMOTE_ADDR is the visitors address

Hello again. I have been quite perplexed by this. According to the apache documentation, REMOTE_ADDR is the visitors address. Also, when I look at the source of other sites that show my ip, they use remote addr. I've come to the assumption that the server has some for of anonymous proxy and/or firewall that stops the REMOTE_ADDR from working properly.

No idea. I am tempted to suggest that as it's on a .ac.uk network, they may have special protections in place to comply with some govt. regulations re. academic domains, etc. Maybe Jamie could try a mirror on his site, since he is in a .ac.uk arena too, see what happens?

If Jamie want to try (I know him by fame, his posts precede him :p ); he can feel free to do so. I have a prolog exam tomorrow, so I'm going into uni, let's see if they can answer some questions.
