Re: IP adresses

Nov 7th, 2005

This is not very efficient, but you could get your ip using a webbased service

import urllib2
def getip():
    webaddress = "http://www.getip.com"
    page = urllib2.urlopen(webaddress)
    pagetolines = page.readlines()
    for i in pagetolines:
        if i.find('<title>GetIP') != -1:
            ipline = i
            break
    ip = ipline.split()[-1].replace("</title>","")
    return ip
print getip()
import urllib2
def getip():
    webaddress = "http://www.getip.com"
    page = urllib2.urlopen(webaddress)
    pagetolines = page.readlines()
    for i in pagetolines:
        if i.find('<title>GetIP') != -1:
            ipline = i
            break
    ip = ipline.split()[-1].replace("</title>","")
    return ip
print getip()

I am not sure how to get that on you clipboard.

In a perfect world exceptions would not be needed.
