Is there a function which returns the IP address of the requestor of the current page?

Don't think so but there is a superglobal that contains it:

$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']

.. which can be faked or sometimes not appear or sometimes you could be hiding behind multiple proxies or a modem... so it's not going to be super reliable (neither are the two variables below).

See also $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'] and $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'].
