Capture user's IP using FX.php

[DanBrill]

When a user submits a form I'd like to capture their IP address. I'm using:

$webEvent=new FX($FMAddress, $FMPort);

$webEvent -> setDBUserPass('User' , $FMPassword);

$webEvent -> setDBData('CabiNet.fp7' , 'WebEvents');

$webEvent -> AddDBParam('UserEmail' , $userEmail);

$webEvent -> AddDBParam('IP', getHostByName($REMOTE_ADDR));

$webEvent -> AddDBParam('EventDescription', 'Password sent to user');

$webEvent_OK = $webEvent -> FMNew();

I thought the php command getHostByName($REMOTE_ADDR) would do the trick, but this keeps giving me the IP of the machine that is serving the database.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dan

Try this one:

$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']

All the best.

Thanks, Garry. Looks like that's doing the trick.
