Try this:

Code: Select all

echo '<HR><PRE>'; print_r($_SERVER); echo '</PRE>';

Look at the manual for SUPER GLOBALS.

Already been discussed here: viewtopic.php?t=33678&highlight=

Great sample code for *everything* you could want from the *client* (Thats why $_SERVER and SUPER GLOBALS aren't the best answer): http://phpsniff.sourceforge.net/

have another question. how can i see the hostname of the computer instead of the ip address. for instance, i have the 162.134.34.2 ip address but also the pc4-tcnet-barlad.rdslink.ro address (something like that). thank you.
