Obtaining the location of an IP using PHP

[keith smith]

Hi,

I've been searching for a way to get the city and state of an IP.  I program in PHP and I can get the remote IP without any problem however I need to take that IP and convert it into a location.

I've run into several howto's that suggest using an API for http://ipinfodb.com .  I'm just not sure that is going to work or be accurate.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
