$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] is the only reliable IP address you'll get - it's extracted directly from the TCP stack and is where the current connection was established from. This means if the user is connecting via a proxy, you'll get the proxy's address, not the user's.

Any of the other header-based ones are unreliable, as HTTP headers are trivial to forge. You can use the information from them, if you'd like, as long as you don't TRUST it.

Try this code:

<?php
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$browser = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
$referrer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];

 if ($referred == "") {
  $referrer = "This page was accessed directly";
  }

echo "<b>Visitor IP address:</b><br/>" . $ip . "<br/>";
echo "<b>Browser (User Agent) Info:</b><br/>" . $browser . "<br/>";
echo "<b>Referrer:</b><br/>" . $referrer . "<br/>";
?>

Output like this:

Visitor IP address: 127.0.0.1

Browser (User Agent) Info: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:9.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/9.0.1

Try this code..

if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'])) {
    $ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'];
} elseif (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])) {
    $ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
} else {
    $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
}
