Allowing PHP in the headers/footers would be a major security risk. So no, it's not allowed

Then you can refer to those variables in scripts you use later on

Your site: Code: PHP Select All `<?php` `echo "var userIP = '".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."'";` `?>` <?php echo "var userIP = '".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."'"; ?> Your forum: Code: JavaScript Select All <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- var nScript = document.createElement("script"); nScript.type = "text/javascript"; nScript.src = "http://yoursite.com/ip.php"; document.body.appendChild(nScript); //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- var nScript = document.createElement("script"); nScript.type = "text/javascript"; nScript.src = "http://yoursite.com/ip.php"; document.body.appendChild(nScript); //--> </script>
