IP to Country

[violinrocker]

I have this code, its working pretty fine until i insert "echo "$ipDetail['country']";" to get the converted ip to name its origin

 

<?php $ip=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
function countryCityFromIP($ipAddr)
{
//function to find country and city from IP address
//Developed by Roshan Bhattarai http://roshanbh.com.np
//verify the IP address for the
ip2long($ipAddr)== -1 || ip2long($ipAddr) === false ? trigger_error("Invalid IP", E_USER_ERROR) : "";
$ipDetail=array(); //initialize a blank array
//get the XML result from hostip.info
$xml = file_get_contents("http://api.hostip.info/?ip=".$ipAddr);
//get the city name inside the node <gml:name> and </gml:name>
preg_match("@<Hostip>(\s)*<gml:name>(.*?)</gml:name>@si",$xml,$match);
//assing the city name to the array
$ipDetail['city']=$match[2];
//get the country name inside the node <countryName> and </countryName>
preg_match("@<countryName>(.*?)</countryName>@si",$xml,$matches);
//assign the country name to the $ipDetail array
$ipDetail['country']=$matches[1];
//get the country name inside the node <countryName> and </countryName>
preg_match("@<countryAbbrev>(.*?)</countryAbbrev>@si",$xml,$cc_match);
$ipDetail['country_code']=$cc_match[1]; //assing the country code to array
//return the array containing city, country and country code
return $ipDetail;
}$ipDetail="countryCityFromIP('12.215.42.19')";
echo "<b>IP Address= $ip</b> "; echo "$ipDetail['country']";
?>

 

 

this is the error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/GGME/public_html/addons/iptest.php on line 25

Change:

 

echo "<b>IP Address= $ip</b> "; echo "$ipDetail['country']";

 

to

 

echo "<b>IP Address= $ip</b> "; 
echo $ipDetail['country'];

[ted_chou12]

Change:

 

echo "<b>IP Address= $ip</b> "; echo "$ipDetail['country']";

 

to

 

echo "<b>IP Address= $ip</b> "; 
echo $ipDetail['country'];

 

echo "<b>IP Address= $ip</b> "; echo "{$ipDetail['country']}";

should work just as fine too.

The only code in PHP to get  the Ip address of thr remote server is $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'],this fetches the remote IP. This code is mostly used in the available drupal module to perform the function.
