GreenMarch Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Hi I am using the following script as an include: <?php function CheckAccess() { $allowedip = '100.200.300.400'; $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; return ($ip == $allowedip); } ?> Calling this from my page with: <?php include("includes/checkaccess.php"); if (!CheckAccess()) { echo 'Access denied: You do not have permission to view this page!'; exit; } echo ''; ?> This allows me access to this page because the static IP is mine. Everyone else just gets the Access Denied message. I want to extend access to other IP addresses but cannot find the correct way to express the array. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

pocobueno1388 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Give this a try: <?php function CheckAccess() { $allowedip = array('100.200.300.400', '444.333.444.555'); //add as many IP's as you would like $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; if (in_array($ip, $allowedip)){ return TRUE; } } ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/59828-solved-function-checkaccess-help/#findComment-297476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMarch Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 You're more than a little good pocobueno 1388 That's done the trick nicely! I got pretty close myself - I just didn't think about the set of curlies around { return TRUE; } Many thanks indeed!

pocobueno1388 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Your welcome =] Keep in mind though, IP addresses change all the time...especially with AOL users. So a person that has access one day, may not the next. IP addresses can also be reused, so someone that did NOT have access may somehow gain access because they have a recycled IP address that has access.

GreenMarch Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 Thanks for the postscript but the site is only being accessed by a corporate network with static IPs so the issues surrounding dynamic IPs don't apply. It's 6:30pm here so I'm knocking off a heading for an ice cold Corona.

JayBachatero Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I just didn't think about the set of curlies around { return TRUE; } You don't need the brackets if its just one statement.
