The function below forces the download of a file inside a directory 'Log' ( may be any directory Log in my case).All we do here is get the file name inside the directory through GET method and call the custom function force_download.

This function checks if the given file exists in the directory and if it does, it forces the download of the file by printing the required headers to the page. Finally the readfile function outputs the file.

The code below gets the real IP of the user and it also gets the proxy address of the user if he is using one.


if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']))
{
$proxy = isset($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP']) ? $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'] : $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
}
else {
$ip = isset($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP']) ? $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'] : $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
}

echo "Host IP: ". $ip ."
";
echo "Hostname: ". gethostbyaddr($ip) ."

";

//If the variable proxy is set, then the user is using Proxy so display proxy information
if(isset($proxy)){
echo "Proxy IP: ". $proxy ."
";
echo "Proxyname: ". gethostbyaddr($proxy)."
";
}

We have often used the function explode() to split a string by a certain string delimeter(eg: ":","~","-","," e.t.c). However,you may seldom come across a situation where you need to split a word letter by letter without any delimeter separating it. There's a simple function "str_split" for this purpose. This function splits a string to an array.
