You ask 2 different questions :<br />
&nbsp;- the IP address of your visitor rely in a log file that is on the Web server where your web site is hosted.<br />
If you use Apache as a web server, this file is compliant with the common log format where the IP/name of the visitor is the first information on each line.<br />
<br />
&nbsp;- How to count the numbr of users that you have is an other question, If a user has a dial up connection, his ip address may change from one session to the other. So the best way would be to have a cookie variable (if you use apache you canuse the mod_cookie module) so that each new user woud have a cookie set and then you would only have to count the number of cookies that where set to know how much users have come to your web site.<br />
<br />
Hope all this helps.

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
