  echo $arr["key"]; //echos nothing, because it doesnt exist. 

Also throws a warning.

There are three levels of message in PHP: error, warning, and informational. By default, PHP only displays error messages, which indicate when something's gone wrong and the script is unable to continue. However, it can also display warning messages, which highlight bad coding practices (such as accessing non-existent variables or array elements) and other potential problems, and informational messages, which just give a information about what something is doing. To show them all (and I recommend doing this when debugging a script), call:

error_reporting(E_ALL);

how do you record a persons ip address

The IP address of the client (note that this may also be a proxy) is stored in $_SERVER['HTTP_REMOTE_ADDR'].

They're not functions, but yes: http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserve...riables.server.
