Hi!

This is probably the wrong forum. Please redirect me if im out of place.

I would like to find out what IP address my visitor uses when visiting a php script page on my domain. This page would contain a form in which the visitor would state his/her message.

My goal is to create purchase-orders written on unique files, and to separate them my idea was to baptize files with the IP addresses, which would ive each visitor an unique purchase-order...

Any hints to a newbie?

'REMOTE_ADDR'

But don't rely on it to be the same each time for a customer. If they are on a shared connection then the ISP may give them a different IP each time they access the internet.
