 Storing an IP in a Database
I have this much,
PHP Code:
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
But how do I store the IP of someone who submits a form and keep it in the database?

Yep, anything like:
Code:
<?
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
MYSQL_QUERY("INSERT INTO internetprotocols VALUES ($ip)");
?>
Will work.

PHP Code:
<?
//db connection or config file
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
MYSQL_QUERY("INSERT INTO ip VALUES ($ip)");
?>
You will also need to set up a table called "ip"

May I point out that all your codes are exactly the same except for the name of the table? What is the point in posting the same thing twice..

Also, they given you this code but are you storing just everyones ip or other information with it, if your just storing the ip is assume you are trying to count how many unique users onto your site but to stop it storing the same twice i think you should have a field called count.
