Determine user location

Post by mzfp2 »

I Hope this is in the correct forum.

I've come across many sites (mainly dating sites) which can determine the visitor city and country, i was just wondering how I could acheive the same thing?

Thanks for any help

Geo Location or GeoIP services, however they aren't all that reliable. Most can only track down as close as the state someone is in (in the US)
