I've got phpnuke 7.1.1NSN installed and I'm trying to get a modified userinfo block (original by

If you go to

you can see the block on the right site.

Ive got:
- user avartar
- welcome ....

- Your IP: (working)
- Your host: (not working)

Right now it's giving the IP, just to show you where my problem is. When I change the code from:

Code:

$content .= "<tr><td width=\"100%\"><left>Your IP: $ip</left></td></tr>\n";
$content .= "<tr><td width=\"100%\"><left>Your Host: $ip</left></td></tr></table></div><hr noshade size=1>\n";

to

Code:

$content .= "<tr><td width=\"100%\"><left>Your IP: $ip</left></td></tr>\n";
$content .= "<tr><td width=\"100%\"><left>Your Host: $hostnm</left></td></tr></table></div><hr noshade size=1>\n";

Changing the second $ip to $hostnm I get an empty line instead of this
example:
Your Host: ip***d***a.speed.planet.nl (the *** are numbers). When I look at the IP_tracking module it's working just fine. What am I missing??

I know nothing of this mod, so I don't know where the variables/values come from. I could only suggest that it may be a global declaration or an sql call. In other words, where ever the $ip variable comes from, is $hostnm originated there too? If so, look at all the places that $ip is used. Make sure that if $ip is being selected in an sql select statement, that $hostnm is too. If $ip is being declared in a global statement, make sure that $hostnm is too.

Code:

$content .= "<tr><td width=\"100%\"><left>Your IP: ".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."</left></td></tr>\n";
$content .= "<tr><td width=\"100%\"><left>Your Host: ".gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])."</left></td></tr></table></div><hr noshade size=1>\n";

This works.
