Note Submitter: radon8472 at radon-software dot net ---- Based on JPs idea i have created this: <?php /** * replaces gethostname() if it doesn`?t exist - gethostname() gets the standard host name for the local machine. * * @author: Radon8472 * @version: 1.0 (2010-11-22) * * @return: bool Returns a string with the hostname on success, otherwise FALSE is returned. */ if(!function_exists("gethostname")) { function gethostname() { return php_uname("n"); } } ?> It returns an uppercase hostname in WinXp, maybe you could a an strtolower() before returnig the Hostname.
