[mapserver-users] Geocoding the Net

[woodbri@swoodbridge.com]

Hi,

I found the following links that some of you might be interested in. 
The first is a PHP class that renders a map with a "You are Here" 
marker on it based on your IP address. It uses the 2nd to do the 
geocoding of the IP address.

While it placed me in Spain instead of the US :(, there have been 
posts in the past about people wanting to show where there web site 
visitor are located and this might supply a simple starting point or 
you might want to take apart the PHP class and integrate it with a 
PHP/Mapscript app.

Have fun with it,
