Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.geoip-country-code-by-name
---
"Returns the two letter ISO country code on success, or FALSE if the address cannot be found in
the database. "
<?php echo geoip_country_code_by_name('74.115.0.24'); ?>
got result: 'A1'
expected result: something from ISO3166 perhaps 'US'
'A1' is actually more useful - it seems to be the code for an 'anonymous proxy'
are there other special codes?
Test script:
---------------
<?php echo geoip_country_code_by_name('74.115.0.24'); ?>
Expected result:
----------------
expected something from ISO3166 perhaps 'US'
Actual result:
--------------
got 'A1'
THIS RESULT IS NOT A BUG.
the documentation should be amended.
