Talk about advertising :angry:

Popups banners the works!

Register a name (free) then ping yourself.

http://catchtraffic.com/test.php theres a little script, tells your host, and ip. Just uses 2 php functions.

I use my little script hosted on my site when I need to get my current IP. It is really simple too and no adverts.

I'm going to redo it in php soon and add more "features" I need to know about.

<?php
$ip = $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR];
$host = gethostbyaddr($ip);
print "Your IP Address is: $ip";
print "<br>&<br>";
print "Your hostname is: $host";
?>

or you could just go ;)

<?php
$get=gethostbyaddr($REMOTE_ADDR);
echo "Your host is: ".$get;
echo "<BR>Your ip is: ".$REMOTE_ADDR;
?>

$REMOTE_ADDR is deprecated, you should use superglobals like $_SERVER instead.

Indeed looks like my script is the winner ;).

Not really, you should have used quotes ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])

Quotes will error out in less you escape it with {} either way it works with or without quotes, quotes just slow it down more ;).

Does anyone know of a free SITE that tests your firewall for known securities,etc..(Besides GRC)....

Thanx in advance.......

I'm used ot programming PHP prior to 4.2.1 or whenever it was when they changed that. But yes if you we're programming in newer version of PHP $_SER.... would be the correct way :D.
