I’m working on 2 web projects, both with location-specific requirements.  Hesitant to pay for a solution, I searched for free solutions. Came up with a few free sites. One offered  a url query ip look up. Then  I fell into a site offering a free ip location database for download.  I thought the free database would work perfectly. So I got the table into mysql, built a php class,

IP Geolocatoin

iplocation, and tested here in the san francisco bay area. I had a buddy test in New Jersey. It worked at my place, but not in Jersey.

I finally decided to buy a database- I’m in the process of building the database, and modifying my php class. When I’m done, I’ll make the class available here. No charge, with hopes it’ll help someone with the same requirements.
