geoip_region_by_name

The geoip_region_by_name() function will return the country and region corresponding to a hostname or an IP address.

This function is currently only available to users who have bought a commercial GeoIP Region Edition. A warning will be issued if the proper database cannot be located.

The names of the different keys of the returning associative array are as follows:

• "country_code" -- Two letter country code (see geoip_country_code_by_name())
• "region" -- The region code (ex: CA for California)

The hostname or IP address whose region is to be looked-up.

Returns the associative array on success, or FALSE if the address cannot be found in the database.

<?php
$region = geoip_region_by_name('www.example.com');
if ($region) {
    print_r($region);
}
?>

Array
(
    [country_code] => US
    [region] => CA
