You can get the IP by using the following bit of code:

### get IP address ###
$ip = (getenv(HTTP_X_ FORWARDED_FOR))
? getenv(HTTP_X_F ORWARDED_FOR)
: getenv(REMOTE_A DDR);


Best regards,

Michel

is it same as getting ip address using

$ip = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADD R"];

is there any difference ??

Personally i prefer:
$isp = isset($REMOTE_H OST) ? $REMOTE_HOST :
@gethostbyaddr( $REMOTE_ADDR);

Since ip addresses change more often, this should give you more
consistent information for eg a counter...
