Does anyone have a favored way of finding the geographic location
of a user's IP address, so that a php script can include content
relevant to that location?
Reverse-lookup of the hostname isn't reliable and often doesn't
work, especially if the returned hostname ends with .com, .net,
..info, .biz or other tld that doesn't reveal geographic location.
I also see a bunch of commercial services that offer a "country
whois" function for a subscription fee. You'd think this sort of
capability would be standardized by now.
Is anybody doing this? If so, how?
