GeoIP extension for php 5.3

[network18]

Hi,

I am planning to create location tracing based on IP and presenting the relevant contents to the user as par his country, similar to msdn website.

I have installed the php_geoip.dll and change the ini file too, to include this dll
The dll shows enabled in IIS as well, from php manager.
But its simply strange that the php still can not recognize geoip functions in my script and throws error!
Also the phpinfo not listing geoip in the installed extensions list.

Searching around makes me feel that some how, its about php version.
I have php 5.3.2
(ps. not to mention placed the dll in the right directory of extension, which is clear as IIS also can detect it)

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

You can used this (you need to download the Pear Package in order for this to work):

Is this on your computer (local) or on your host (online)?

If it's on your own computer then try this:

If that doesn't work read this:

I also have window 7 and I also have the Pear Package. I don't see am issue there.
