This class can lookup related information of the country of the network of a given IP address.
It does not need an SQL database server as it uses the ip2country flat file databases to lookup the the IP country and other details like the country ISO 2 and 3 letter codes, FIPS104 code, ISO number, region, capital, currency name and code and flags.
The class can also generate select inputs for choosing a country in Web forms. The select input default country can optionally be set to the country of a the user's IP address.
New In v3.0:
- If the IP address was not found in the local database, Its info will be fetched from Whois server.
- A new function added "find_country": This function was suggested by 'Nizam', It will find a country by providing any info about it (name, iso2, iso3, fips104 OR even the Capital)
- The fips104 field in countries list, was updated. thanks to 'Nizam'
- A new function added "is_valid_ip": it will check the validity of the passed IP address
Note:
You can change the WHOIS service to any other one you might know.
But if you did so, don't forget to change the $whois_regex and $whois_return.
