I was wondering if there is a way in PHP that you can determine the IP
address? I am wondering because I am developing a simple web based
program (in php) for use in a hospital setting and I want to do some
checks to make sure that the program is not being run from a computer
outside of the hospital. Instead of having user names and passwords, I
thought it would be eaiser if I just checked the IP address, especially
since this is not a program that really has to be secure, but I would
like to prevent just anyone from using it. Is this possible with php?
Thanks,
