block ip

[Jessej]

how do i block an ip from viewing my site

Best bet is to do this at the host level. Most hosts have the ability to set IP's to block within the hosting interface.

I am with 1and1 I hope this works here is the code for PHP


<?php
$deny = array("222.222.222", "333.333.333");
if (in_array ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], $deny)) {
header("location: http://www.google.com/");
exit();
} ?>

any more feedback please

I dont know anything about 1and1 but as I said its much easier to log into your hosting control panel and implement their IP blocking tools than try and create your own.

And if your host doesnt offer such a function I suggest lookinginto doing it via .htaccess.
