hi..
i want to get visitors location based ip address and based on the ip address i want to get the country details in asp.net c#.
i was used the below coding
public string IpAddress()
{
string strIpAddress;
strIpAddress = Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
if (strIpAddress == null)
{
strIpAddress = Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];
}
return strIpAddress;
}
private DataTable GetGeoLocation(string ipaddress)
{
//Create a WebRequest
WebRequest rssReq = WebRequest.Create("http://freegeoip.appspot.com/xml/"
+ ipaddress);
//Create a Proxy
WebProxy px = new WebProxy("http://freegeoip.appspot.com/xml/" + ipaddress, true);
//Assign the proxy to the WebRequest
rssReq.Proxy = px;
//Set the timeout in Seconds for the WebRequest
rssReq.Timeout = 2000;
try
{ //Get the WebResponse
WebResponse rep = rssReq.GetResponse();
//Read the Response in a XMLTextReader
XmlTextReader xtr = new XmlTextReader(rep.GetResponseStream());
//Create a new DataSet
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
//Read the Response into the DataSet
ds.ReadXml(xtr);
return ds.Tables[0];
}
catch
{
return null;
}
}
but it displays the ip address as 127.0.0.0 and location as null.
so how to solve this issue.
need ur suggestions with examples
