well here's the link I found for a PHP IP Log Script but when I inputted it into my PHP index.php file on the appropriate spot...

It won't log down the IP...

http://www.developerz.com/php_iplogger.htm

<?php
# The full path to log file: #
$log_file = "ip.txt";
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$fp = fopen ($log_file, "a");

if (flock($fp, LOCK_EX))
{
fwrite($fp, $ip . "\n");
flock($fp, LOCK_UN);
} else {
echo "Couldn't lock the file !";
}

fclose ($fp);
echo "Your IP Address has been logged: " . $ip;
?>

still doesn't work well....

Go to the bottom of my blog and tell me what's wrong....

Your host is the problem... it's saying that writable connections aren't allowed, so there is no way to make it work.

o no wonder.......some of my installed PHP scripts didn't work due to the same problem

You can't modify/create/delete files if you give a "http://" path because the file is actually being requested over the internet rather than from the same machine, so it will get executed by whichever pre-processor it requires.

That is why you are getting the error:

HTTP wrapper does not support writeable connections

You need to use a relative path, or an absolute path that does not use http://....

instead of
fopen("http:///t3chb0yg3n13.gameblock.net/blog/ip.txt")

which should have been:

fopen("http://t3chb0yg3n13.gameblock.net/blog/ip.txt");

try

fopen("./ip.txt");

or

fopen("ip.txt");

That's exactly what he's using.

Hmmm interesting... it appears that it is being wrapped in the HTTP protocol, which doesn't make much sense, since my code doesn't ask for that.

Try changing this:
fopen("ip.txt");

to:
fopen("/home/block/public_html/t3chb0yg3n13/blog/ip.txt");

I'm guessing your host, or blog software is automatically appending a URL to it, so using a full path should void that.

Make sure that the file has write permissions as well.

For debugging purposes chmod everything to 777, once it works set it to a more suitable setting and something more secure for this purpose.

thx guys...it works!!!

oh no you got my ip. lol ;)

rofl....one again thx guys ....This forum is the best!!!!!!
