Hi William,

Thank you very much for your help. I noticed that
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
gives the IP address as 127.0.0.1. Would this be the IP address of
the server and would it give my computer's real IP address if someone
was accessing my server and running this IP script remotely?

Thanks,
Peter.
