ive been looking for a while now so i thought id ask you guys as im sure someone will know

im looking for an IP address lookup (with GEO location) that accepts GET parameters for the IP address, having google Maps would be a major advantage.

Eagerly awaiting a reply.

This site uses a post, but that is a trivial workaround when using it as a link

http://www.ip-adress.com/

the 'trivial' workaround does not appear to work.

eg this site says you should use

http://www.ip-adress.com/&title=80.3.64.9

Doesnt work.

That's because the site uses a post and not a get.

Code similar to this "should" work.

Code: Select all

<form method=post action="http://www.ip-adress.com">
       <input name="custom_ip_address" type="text" value="24.24.24.24" size="20" maxlength="20">
         <input name="submit" type="submit" value="lookup any ip">
</form>
I've tested it but can't seem to get it working. I think it's just not posting to the correct page that they want. Although I haven't looked at their code too thoroughly.[/syntax]

http://www.ipgp.net offers some options for webmasters to get the location of an IP.
