peranha Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Something like GEO-IP? It gets your location based on the ip address, but it may not be 100% accurate.

Priceless1 Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Can you give me a specific script or link to one? Geo-IP costs money - and I also want something that just says city/state if possible...

Priceless1 Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 That's all nice but I need it to say the city and the state - all my visitors are going to be US based. I don't need someone to be able to type in their IP address manually.

gevans Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Also, I like finding these things out but you've basically had two people using google for you, this isn't a problem just laziness Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/144006-display-users-citystate-on-page/#findComment-755830 Share on other sites More sharing options...
