ok i got this code off bhw and now i need to know how to use it.

<?php
if ($_SERVER["HTTP_X_FORWARDED"])
{
$ip = $_SERVER["HTTP_X_FORWARDED"];
}
elseif ($_SERVER["HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR"])
{
$ip = $_SERVER["HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR"];
}
elseif ($_SERVER["HTTP_FORWARDED"])
{
$ip = $_SERVER["HTTP_FORWARDED"];
}
elseif ($_SERVER["HTTP_X_FORWARDED"])
{
$ip = $_SERVER["HTTP_X_FORWARDED"];
}
else
{
$ip = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];
}

$geo = unserialize(file_get_contents('http://www.geoplugin.net/php.gp?ip='.$ip));
$city = $geo['geoplugin_city'];

switch($city)
{
case "Dallas": <redirect to your targetted city page>;
break;

default: <redirect everyone else to this page>;
break;
}
?>

ive created a php page with this code in it and nothing else. how do i use it properly?

i've tried changing the city and puttin a url in the redirect to your targetted page line but when i upload it and go to the site the page lists a parse error on line 28 which is the case "Dallas": line.

how do i fix this and am i doing this correctly? do i need to have anything else on my page? 25$ for someone can help me figure this out.

Hey here, hope his helps you out ...

// this records your visiting surfer's IP address ...
$checkip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

// or you could debug by using ... $checkip = "72.167.115.223"; ... which is my IP address that returned the sample data below


// for debugging purposes, this grabs the data but not in the form of an array, we will echo this to see all the variables available we can use
$geoData = file_get_contents('http://www.geoplugin.net/php.gp?ip='.$checkip);

// output the data to debug
echo $geoData."<br /><br />";

// for me the data below was output ...
/*
a:14:{s:14:"geoplugin_city";s:10:"Scottsdale";s:16:"geoplugin_region";s:2:"AZ";s:18:"geoplugin_areaCode";s:3:"480";s:17:"geoplugin_dmaCode";s:3:"753";s:21:"geoplugin_countryCode";s:2:"US";s:21:"geoplugin_countryName";s:13:"United States";s:23:"geoplugin_continentCode";s:2:"NA";s:18:"geoplugin_latitude";s:13:"33.6119003296";s:19:"geoplugin_longitude";s:14:"-111.890701294";s:20:"geoplugin_regionCode";s:2:"AZ";s:20:"geoplugin_regionName";s:7:"Arizona";s:22:"geoplugin_currencyCode";s:3:"USD";s:24:"geoplugin_currencySymbol";s:5:"$";s:27:"geoplugin_currencyConverter";d:1;}
*/

// lets grab the data a second time, but this time combine it into an array 
$geo = unserialize(file_get_contents('http://www.geoplugin.net/php.gp?ip='.$checkip));

// out of all the data returned, this isolates the city
$city = $geo['geoplugin_city'];

// lets go one step further and also grab the country which is found in the debugging code returned above
$country = $geo['geoplugin_countryCode'];

// spitting it all out ...
echo "I am a visitor from $country country, from the city of $city";

Paste the above into a blank page and hopefully you can reason out how to use the data. Cheers.

Next you want to do something with the data ... the former script used a switch which is kind of crazy, what they expect you to do insert a list of every city in the world for the switch? What I would do is something a little more like this ...

$dashCity = str_replace(" ","-",$city);
Header( "Location: http://".$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]."/$dashCity/" );

The above code would redirect your visitors to your page for that city. Assuming that was a Dallas page it would look like www.example.com/Dallas/ ... the str_replace puts dashes in there for cities with two words. Or you could have done it Header( "Location: http://".$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]."/?city=$dashCity/" ); many options

Hope this helps, cheers.
