You can not see it on my site (www.e-gen.cjb.net or www.geocities.com/e_gen2000) but here is the script i am using, sorry for not displayin it earlier...........


<script language="javascript">
var ip = '<!--#echo var="REMOTE_ADDR"-->'
if (ip == '206.186.23.178') {
alert("STOP! You are viewing this page from an IP address that is not allowed!");
alert("Why can't you guys just leave me alone?");
if (confirm("Do you want to leave peacefully? Or will I have to help you?"))
{location.href="http://www.yahoo.com" } else { ("OK you choose I don't care! Bye bye! Don't come back!"); {location.href="http://www.yahoo.com" }} }
</script>

This won't help you in any way, but I thought I'd mention it, I read somewhere that on Dial Up connections, the PC's IP changes everytime. It stays static mostly on LAN and the like.

Love your site though, good luck.

hmmm....

if you take a look at the script you'll see this line...
var ip = '<!--#echo var="REMOTE_ADDR"-->'

the "<!--#echo var="REMOTE_ADDR"-->" bit is in a language called SSI... meaning it cant be done in this way on servers like geocities. there are good tutorials on SSI on JavaScript Kit (http://www.javascriptkit.com), heres a method that might work and even then only in netscape...


<script>
<!--
// this script was based on one found

myAddress=java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost();
ip=myAddress.getHostAddress();

if (ip=="0.0.0.0") // change this to a banned ip...
{alert('Your IP has been banned');
window.location="http://www.google.com/"}
//-->
</script>

this script was based on one from JavaScriptkit... but the author bunged it up with loads of credits rubbish that any pleb could remove... :rolleyes:
