note 114964 added to language.variables.predefined

Hello everyone, i m a new hand with php and i was little curious to know is there any predefined function that could directly get the actual ip address like grabip(); or something ?? instead of doing nested checking that from what actual ip user is requesting and getting request. is this mandatory to check all of these 1. weather it is a proxy user or not 2. is it a shared net. 3. lastly CLIENT_ADDER HELP WITH THESE IF ANYONE GOT MY POINT..
