    <p><br> I am developing a country specific website, for which I thought to have a geo redirection installed at my php server. The basic approach is to record the incoming IP address in <code>$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']</code> and then use a geolocation database to convert that into country information. I did go with Maxmind geolocation service. The final script that I came through with some google power and experiment power was as follows</p> <h2>index.php</h2> <pre><code>&lt;?php getCountry($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']); $ip=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; function getCountry($ipAddress) { // get the country of the IP from the MAXMIND $country=""; // include functions include("geoip.inc.php"); // read GeoIP database $handle = geoip_open("GeoIP.dat", GEOIP_STANDARD); // map IP to country $country = geoip_country_name_by_addr($handle, $ipAddress); // close database handler geoip_close($handle); if ($country==""|| empty($country)) { $country="Unknown"; } return $country; } $country_code = geoip_country_code_by_addr($gi, "$ip"); // Country name is not used so commented // Get Country Name based on source IP //$country = geoip_country_name_by_addr($gi, "$ip"); geoip_close($gi); switch($country_code) { case "US": header("Location: http://site1.com "); break; case "CA": header("Location: http://site2.com "); break; case "GB": header("Location: http://site3.com "); break; default: header("Location: http://site.com "); } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>I downloaded the <strong>geoip.inc</strong> from <a href="https://www.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/php-20120410/geoip.inc" rel="nofollow">https://www.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/php-20120410/geoip.inc</a></p> <p>and <strong>GeoIP.dat</strong> from <a href="http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/legacy/geolite/" rel="nofollow">http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/legacy/geolite/</a></p> <p><strong>BUT</strong> Something somewhere IS going wrong. The code doesn't execute, with a few errors each time. Have tried a lot many permutations of silly mistakes, but nothing worked. Calling the URL brings up the file geoip.inc's code on the URL.</p> <p>Tried to find any similar questions on SO, but couldn't. A detailed help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
