IP lookup using PHP | Plot location on Google Map using IP Address
anoopsachari | Sep 18, 2010 | Comments 8
Many of you would have seen IP lookup pages and that would give you details of your IP Address , your location etc. I planned to implement the same using PHP and was able to implement successfully . I am sharing it with you , hope this would help you in your projects .
I have plotted your location too on a Google Map . If you are using this code in any of your project please do register a Google Map API key from here and replace the ” APIKEY ” with the API key you get.
The code gives you following output .
The package contains only a single file named index.php .

<?php
$ip = '';
if(isset($_POST['ipSubmit']))
{
$ip = $_POST['ipAddress'];
}
else {
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
}
$xml = simplexml_load_file('http://ipinfodb.com/ip_query.php?ip='.$ip.'&timezone=true');
$ip = $xml->Ip;
$status = $xml->Status;
$country = $xml->CountryName;
$region = $xml->RegionName;
$city = $xml->City;
$latitude = $xml->Latitude;
$longitude = $xml->Longitude;
$timezone = $xml->TimezoneName;

I am trying your code but it point out wrong place & this does not generate state & city name.
Please Help me Buddy.

So, since IPInfoDB now require an API, I altered the script. There is an updated version here:
