Hi Alex,

Forgive me if I sound a little daft... this is the first site I've built 
with Typo3. This is what I understand:

Place these 2 lines into the template setup:
  lib.ipaddress = TEXT
  lib.ipaddress.data = getenv:REMOTE_ADDR

Place this on my page:
<div id="ipaddress"> </div>

This solution seems much simpler than the PHP code I had found... thanks 
for that.

Floyd Arguello
