/*

 This script uses the local copy of the ip-to-country.com
 database available on all php.net mirror sites to find
 out what country the user is in. This data is stored in
 a cookie for future usage, and another check is only done,
 if the cookie is expired.

 We have an index to speed up the search. The first line of
 the index file contains the step value used to create the
 index. The IP should be divided by this number, when an
 appropriate index entry is searched for. Then CSV formatted
 lines are placed in the file with the division results and
 starting indexes (pointing to the data file).

 The data file has a fixed record size format to ease
 fseek()ing. The format of the database is:

  n records representing IP range and country relations
  the format of a record is:

   - starting IP number [10 bytes, padded with zeros from left]
   - ending IP number   [10 bytes, padded with zeros from left]
   - ISO country code   [3 bytes / letters]
   - newline            [1 byte: \n]

 IP numbers can be created with i2c_ip2num().

 Some things to consider:

  - Now 'NA' is stored in the cookie (no country detected).
    This is partly for safety reasons, not to bog down the
    server with country detection in case the data files are
    not there, or they are bogus, or the user has a non listed
    IP.
