[Resolved] ip log, print

[30minutes]

Hi,
I'm trying to work on an ip logger that will store the ip, referrer, and browser type.I also want this logger to print what it has logged.This is what I have so far:

<?
$file = "hideit.txt";
$open = fopen( $file, "a" ) or die ( "Operation Failed!" );
fputs( $open, $HTTP_USER_AGENT, $REMOTE_ADDR, $HTTP_REFERER\n" );
fclose( $open );
print "$HTTP_USER_AGENT"; "$REMOTE_ADDR"; "$HTTP_REFERER";
?>

I know this is incorrect, but I'm attempting to learn php.I would appreciate an explanation if you are able to help me 🙂

<?
$file = "hideit.txt";

// add a b if you want to support windows platforms
$open = fopen( $file, "ab" ) or die ( "Operation Failed!" );

// define a $string (pipes & text optional - use whatever you want or none at all) 
// also, use the $_SERVER superglobal (will work regardless of register globals settings)
$string = "user agent: " . $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] .  " | remote address: " . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . " | http referrer: "  . $HTTP_REFERER . "\n";
fputs( $open, $string);
fclose( $open );
echo $string;
?>
