GeoLiteCity.dat - http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLiteCity.dat.gz please convert GeoLiteCity.dat.gz to GeoLiteCity.dat and put in geoip named folder
include("application/libraries/geoip/geoipcity.inc");
include("application/libraries/geoip/geoipregionvars.php");
$giCity = geoip_open("application/libraries/geoip/GeoLiteCity.dat", GEOIP_STANDARD);
$ip =$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$record = geoip_record_by_addr($giCity, $ip);
echo "Getting Country and City detail by IP Address <br /><br />";
echo "IP: " . $ip . "<br /><br />";
echo "Country Code: " . $record->country_code . "<br />" .
"Country Code3: " . $record->country_code . "<br />" .
"Country Name: " . $record->country_name . "<br />" .
