Get website header with IP

Question

I want to get the header from a website with the IP address.

I used get_header() but this only works with URL! Are there other ways to do this? Without using gethostbyaddre.

You can actually use an IP. Since there's no code, I can't tell where you're going wrong. But I can tell how it should be done:

$url = 'http://173.194.65.101/'; $headers = get_headers($url); print_r($headers);

...but get_headers() expects a URL:

array get_headers ( string $url [, int $format = 0 ] )

use $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] to get the ip address.

You can make a cUrl call than analyse and extract the headers from the server's reponse.
