Following from my last post, here is the method to get your IP address if you are behind a proxy.
function getRealIPAddr() {
// check ip from share internet
if (!empty($_SERVER["HTTP_CLIENT_IP"])) {
$ip=$_SERVER["HTTP_CLIENT_IP"];
} elseif (!empty($_SERVER["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"])) {
// to check ip is pass from proxy
$ip=$_SERVER["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
} else {
$ip=$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];
}
return $ip;
}
As this method gets more accurate results it is better to use this than the previous function.
