Re: obtain IP from other site ( or domain name)

A couple ways are : 1. Setup an affiliate link for them to use : http://www.you.com/foo.php?affiliate=them They'd stick that link on their site. Variable $affiliate will tell you the hit came from their (them) site. You log this information and analyze and fight over the validity of it with them. No doubt they'll also track outgoing hits so they may do something like : go.php?url=http://www.you.com/foo.php?affiliate=them But I digress. 2. Use HTTP_REFERER and watch your server logs. See above. 3. Use a third party such as linkshare or befree or something similar to track such information for you. Although don't think you're at this point yet :-) The variable your subject is requesting is : HTTP_REFERER. Search google for this variable and much information will come about. It'll *usually* give you the exact referring url.
