Grabbing IP address information

Hi everyone! My name's Jenni and I'm new to the list. I hope this question isn't too simple. I want to grab some information about an IP address and present it in a readable fashion, so I wrote the following: $location = file_get_contents('http://freegeoip.net/json/78.18.200.182'); $location = str_replace('{', '', $location); $location = str_replace('}', '', $location); $location = str_replace('"', '', $location); $location = str_replace(',', "\n", $location); echo $location; However, this seems longer than it needs to be. Is there a better way to do this? Thank you, Jenni Superior Shelving Systems::::.... http://www.SuperiorShelving.com The (Storage|Office|Display) Shelving Specialists Since 1984 Computer Workstations: http://www.superiorshelving.com/mfg/nexel/pages/lan-workstations-nexel.php
