Plot your site visitors on a world map

Umm, I\'m in Verdi, Nevada (right next to Reno) and it plotted me somewhere in the mid-west (like Missouri or something)...

It did correctly give my location as Verdi, but the red diamond shows me somewhere on the rolling plains.

Heh - it's similar to the "Welcome to our visitors from *blah*' block - it relies on the backend system (in this case at IP Atlas) to correctly determine the location of your IP address. Of course, connecting through proxy's/gateways/etc could make this more inaccurate still - so it's by no means an exact system.

Aside from that, I've installed it and it works a treat :) Couple of uber-picky problems, Blaine, some of the .php files in the archive were set to chmod 751 and wouldn't work until they were 755, and the install text is headed File Management Module - but otherwise - top marks, I love it!

Cheers, Alan

Hey thanks Alan, thats what I get for using a previous INSTALL file as my source. I\'ll clean up those two items.

Cheers,
Blaine

that\'s just the thing - it told me I was in Verdi, NV, which is correct. It did not, however, correctly place Verdi on the map...
