I'm a newbie with php, but experienced with other languages. I'm
maintaining a small site written in php. To ease debugging and updates
I've used an onscreen reference to indicate identity of included files
etc.

I don't really want this reference to be visible to anyone but myself.
So I searched the manual and found some promising predefined variables
that I used in this code snippet:

<?php
if ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = "127.0.0.1") {
echo $level1, '_', $level2, '_', $imageNO, ' ', $display;
}
?>

This worked spllendidly when I tested running our site locally using
the XAMPP-bundle. But when I copied the code out to the real server it
seems that all clients are found at 127.0.0.1!

I'm sure there are lots of better ways both to fix my code, and
especially totally different ways to do what I'm trying to achive, any
suggestions very welcome!
