Re: Getting totals

I really doubt you need to use strstr() here, since it will return a string (_if_ the 'needle' is found in the 'haystack')[1], I guess you're looking for strpos() or something similar. Now, you said that you have this IPs on your database, so why don't you count the IPs directly on your database? If the examples you gave are real and the first 3 segments of each IP are the same, then you could group your records, clasify and count them. For example, if you were using MySQL, you can count them with something like SELECT

    SUBSTRING(ip, 1, 11) AS ip
    COUNT(1) AS counter

FROM table GROUP BY ip ORDER BY ip ASC *NOT tested which should give you something like

  ip          | counter

-------------+---------

  192.168.100 |       1
  192.168.101 |       2
      ···     |   ···
  192.168.110 |      11

Put quotes or apostrophes on the strings... if (strstr('192.168.100','192.168.100.10')) { On Tue, June 6, 2006 8:46 pm, Rob W. wrote:

So far what I have gotten is a stristr match but it's not working correctly. I have a variable that basically weed's out the last digits of the ip it's self from help previously So my code so far is: if (stristr($block,$address)) { $count_ip++; }

You've got the parameters mixed up. strstr is (haystack, needle) so you need strstr($address, $block). php.net/stristr. -- Atentamente / Sincerely, J. Rafael Salazar Magaña
