Find IP Address in PHP

Here now learn the script of to find ip address in php of visitor which visit on website.

To store Visitor ip addres in PHP has syntax :-

1	$_SERVER[‘REMOTE_ADDR’] // return visitor ip address

When a ip address has been received then now need text file to enter in it by using the
 syntax fwrite() function

$myipaddress = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."\r\n";

In above codes first declare a variable which can pick IP address of  Visitor. One thing remember if you are testing or working on localhost server then naturally it return Local IP 127.0.0.1
First, we will use a variable to store the ip address. If you are working on a localhost environment, it will return 127.0.0.1

1	$myipaddress = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."\r\n";

Now time to store visitor IP address in file using the PHP functions fopen() and fwrite(). 

Use below codes for that :

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

// store visitor ip address $myipaddress = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."\r\n"; // Log file name which store all ip address $ipfile = 'logdata.txt'; // store visitor data by opening log file $ipfp = fopen($ipfile, 'a'); fwrite($ipfp, $myipaddress); fclose($ipfp);

These codes produce the output like as below in our log file:

127.0.0.1
127.0.0.1
127.0.0.1
127.0.0.1

We can also approve more this script with help of to enter other PHP funcations like as browser information and visitor’s visited page.

For that we need miner changes in our pre-written PHP script codes.

Use below codes for that :

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18

// store visitor ip address $myipaddress = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."\r\n"; // visited page name $page = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']; // browser detail $brow = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']; // Log file name which store all ip address $ipfile = 'logdata.txt'; // store visitor data by opening log file $ipfp = fopen($ipfile, 'a'); fwrite($ipfp, $myipaddress); fclose($ipfp);

These codes produce the output like as below in our log file:

127.0.0.1 - /product.html Mozilla 19.0 (Windows NT)
127.0.0.1 - /product.html Mozilla 19.0 (Windows NT)
127.0.0.1 - /product.html Mozilla 19.0 (Windows NT)
127.0.0.1 - /product.html Mozilla 19.0 (Windows NT)

Enjoy :) you have done!

using php with html

I writing this post with the view of that you familiar with “what is HTML Page and basic PHP?”. For run PHP codes inside PHP also require a server on your local machine which is a publish in our blog. So we know that HTML is a base of web development where developer can present content in fashionable way for website. Well form formatted of HTML pages give benefits to spread world-wide which will we cover later. HTML pages have basic structure to present contents. There are some different area in HTML which use for different purpose. Now given below is basic structure of HTML page.

<html>
<head>
<title>This is the title shown above the menu bar on my browser</title>
</head>
 
<body>
I wish I knew how to write PHP in HTML files...
</body>
 
</html>

Now we come to our main aim is use of php. We can combine HTML and PHP in same page of website. In above section we learn basic structure of HTML Page. Look “How merge PHP codes in HTML?”

<html>
<head>
<title>This is the title shown above the menu bar on my browser</title>
</head>
 
<body>
<?php
  print "I know how to write PHP!";
?>
 
<b>Perhaps I'll be lazy and write more php.</b>
 
<?php print "No way!  PHP is cool!<br />"; ?>
</body>
 
</html>

Now we saw “How combine to language contents?”. <?php show the start of php working area and ?> show end of php codes. So we can easly start php area any where in html page according to requirement. You can put your codes inside of  <?php your statement goes here…… ?> . if you type your code out side of <?php ?>  it not working and html page is taking it as simple contents. Because to work with php need to define its working area. So then php language trace and under of what command type and there contents.

PHP Pagination

Pagination of pages in PHP is a topic famous topic. So here I not explain any new php codes for Php Pagination. I will explain how you can use pagination for data held within an array.

Normally you did only need to paginate your data that if you’ve got quite a lot of it in.With database systems of course pagination (Php Pagination) can be achieved relatively easily by specifying the offset parameters in an SQL query. But what if your data didn’t come from a database table and instead came from a flat file. So look at the following code which expalin exactly how it’s done Php Pagination.

// Data, normally from a flat file or some other source

$data = "Item 1|Item 2|Item 3|Item 4|Item 5|Item 6|Item 7|Item 8|Item 9|Item 10";

// Put our data into an array

$dataArray = explode('|', $data);

// Get the current page

$currentPage = trim($_REQUEST[page]);

// Pagination settings

$perPage = 3;

$numPages = ceil(count($dataArray) / $perPage);

if(!$currentPage || $currentPage > $numPages)

$currentPage = 0;

$start = $currentPage * $perPage;

$end = ($currentPage * $perPage) + $perPage;

// Extract ones we need

foreach($dataArray AS $key => $val)

{

if($key >= $start && $key < $end)

$pagedData[] = $dataArray[$key];

}

Created the $data array which contains a long line of items distribute up by the pipe '|' character. Realistically this would be real data just for this tutorial I'll keep it simple. Then, using the explode() function I've cut up the $data variable into array using '|' as the delimeter.

The line 8 in Php Pagination simply gets the current page number one is provided.

Lines 7 to 13 Php Pagination do the math calculations which make this array pagination work. Now set how many items we'd like to display per page into the variable, $perPage. In the example above I've set this to 3.

On line 8 we're working out how many pages there are going to be. This can be done by dividing the total number of items (by using the count() function) by the items per page value. Notice on this line that I'm also using the ceil() function. This basically rounds the number up (e.g. 5.134 becomes 6).

We then have a simply if statement on lines 9 and 10 of Php Pagination. It's basically saying that if no page number has been provided or if the provided page number is more than the number of pages, set it to 0. This stops people from trying to access pages which have no items.

On lines 14 and 15 of Php Pagination we're setting the $start and $end variable which you might recognize if you've done pagination using SQL queries before. The $start variable holds the lowest ID of the item which can be displayed on this page. The $end variable is maximum cap which the items ID can be to be displayed (actually, it's one above, but this depends on how you do your if statement on line 17 of Php Pagination).

Great, we're nearly there. Now, on line 15 of Php Pagination we start a foreach statement which loops through each of our data items. Inside this loop is a simple if statement to see if the id of the current data item is above (or equal to) the $start value and below the $end value. If it is then we place a copy of it into our $pagedData array.

Once the foreach loop has finished the $pagedData array now contains all of the data items which we should be displaying on the current page. All we have to do now is to loop through and display them. This has been shown in the following code snippet.

foreach($pagedData AS $item)

            echo $item . "<br>";

As displaying the data goes that's it. Now need to display the pagination links to let you navigate your way through the pages. Here's the code for Php Pagination.

if($currentPage > 0 && $currentPage < $numPages)

            echo '<a href="?page=%27%20.%20%28$currentPage%20-%201%29%20.%20%27">« Previous page</a><br>';

if($numPages > $currentPage && ($currentPage + 1) < $numPages)

            echo '<a href="?page=%27%20.%20%28$currentPage%20+%201%29%20.%20%27" class="right">Next page »</a><br>';

Above codes of Php Pagination contain two quite simple if statements. First is displaying the "previous page" link and the another is for displaying the "next page" link.

If first statement checking to see if the current page is more than 0 and if the current page is less than the total number of pages.

The second if statement is checking to see if the total number of pages is more than the current page number and if there are any more pages after the current page.

Atleast you have done Php Pagination.

Hit counter

A hit counter will let us know how many times a page is accessed. In case one visitors loads the page several times, the hit counter will increase several times (but this is likely to happen only a few times).

The code for the hit counter bellow will save the number of hits in a file named counter.txt (the name of this file may be changed). Each time the page is loaded, the file will be read, the number will be increased by one and the new number will be saved to the same file.

counter.php

<?php

//The file where number of hits will be saved; name may be changed; p.e. "/counter_files/counter1.txt"
$counterfile = "counter.txt";

// Opening the file; number of hit is stored in variable $hits
$fp = fopen($counterfile,"r");
$hits = fgets($fp,100);
fclose($fp);

//increading number of hits
$hits++;

//saving number of hits
$fp = fopen($counterfile,"w");
fputs($fp, $hits);
fclose($fp);

//printing  hits; you may remove next line (and keep the counter only for your records)
print $hits;

?>

To use this code, copy it to your page in the exact position where you want to show number of hits. If your page is a ".html" page, change the extension to ".php". Them, visit your page. In the first visit, you will get a couple of errors (the file where number of hits are recorded does not exists, so some errors will be shown in the page). Reload the page and you will see no errors. The hit counter will be working.

In case you want to use different hit counters for different pages, chage name of $counterfile for each page (p.e.: counter1.txt, counter2.txt, etc).

Insert Data Using Php Mysql

For this, you are going to need to login to a MySQL server administration, such as ‘phpmyadmin‘. Contact your server host for more details. Copy and paste the follow MySQL code into your query panel. This show generate a database table called ‘my_table‘.

CREATE TABLE `my_table` (
`id` int(6) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`name` varchar(255) NOT NULL default ”,
`email` varchar(255) NOT NULL default ”,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
UNIQUE KEY `id` (`id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;

Build an HTML form to collect data

This takes us a little away from PHP and MySQL and back to simple HTML. Copy and paste the following into a document and label it as ‘add.php‘.

<form id=”FormName” action=”added.php” method=”post” name=”FormName”>
<table width=”448″ border=”0″ cellspacing=”2″ cellpadding=”0″>
<tr>
<td width = “150″ align=”right”><label for=”name”>Name</label></td>
<td><input id=”name” name=”name” type=”text” size=”25″ value=”" maxlength=”255″></td>
</tr><tr>
<td width = “150″ align=”right”><label for=”email”>E-mail</label></td>
<td><input id=”email” name=”email” type=”text” size=”25″ value=”" maxlength=”255″></td>
</tr><tr>
<td width=”150″></td>
<td>
<input type=”submit” name=”submitButtonName” value=”Add”></td>
</tr></table>
</form>

Capturing the form data with PHP

Now we need to capture the data sent via the form into a new page called ‘added.php‘ as specified within the top of our form. Add the following to ‘added.php‘. This page will now capture the to form item values of ‘name’ and ‘email’, as inputted by your visitor.

<?php
$name = $_POST['name']; /// Retrieve the value of ‘name’ from form
$email = $_POST['email'];/// Retrieve the value of ‘email’ from form
?>

Connecting to your MySQL database

Modify the following code in order to connect to your MySQL database and database tables with PHP. Many servers use ‘local_host’ as the host connector. If you are unsure, ask your server host. Replace the above with the following (added.php)
 

<?php
// Connection to MySQL database table
$my_db = mysql_connect(’local_host’, ‘my_username’, ‘my_password’);
$sel3Q = mysql_select_db(’my_database_name’, $my_db);
//

$name = $_POST['name']; /// Retrieve the value of ‘name’ from form
$email = $_POST['email'];/// Retrieve the value of ‘email’ from form
?> 

Now you have opened a connection to your MySQL database ‘my_database_name‘.

Add the data to the MySQL database with PHP

We will now need to tell the PHP to add this data to our MySQL database table. We will modify the above code with the following (added.php).

<?php
// Connection to MySQL database table
$my_db = mysql_connect(’local_host’, ‘my_username’, ‘my_password’);
$sel3Q = mysql_select_db(’my_database_name’, $my_db);
//

$name = $_POST['name']; /// Retrieve the value of ‘name’ from form
$email = $_POST['email'];/// Retrieve the value of ‘email’ from form

/// Add it to the database
$query = “INSERT INTO my_table (id, name, email)
VALUES (”, ‘$name’, ‘$email’ )”; /// the value of ‘id’ is left blank as it is set to ‘auto_increment’
$results = mysql_query($query); /// Process the above
///

if ($results) /// If it worked echo statement
{
echo “Details added.”;
}
else /// If it didn’t worked echo statement
{
echo “Didn’t work!!!”;
}

mysql_close(); /// Close connection with MySQL database – recommended!
?> 

As you can see from the above, the communication with the MySQL is sent via a string ‘$query’. The string is then passed through mysql_query tosend the contents of that string to the MySQL for processing.
