If you want to use the above function you should test for ':' character before '.'. Meaning, you should check if it's an ipv6 address before checking for ipv4. Why? IPv6 allows this type of notation: ::127.0.0.1 If you check for '.' character you will think this is an ipv4 address and it will fail. ---- Server IP: 81.92.200.26 Probable Submitter: 84.90.27.238 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.inet-pton.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/66191 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66191/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66191/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66191/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66191/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66191/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66191/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66191 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/66191 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
