Bug description:Missing region names from geoip library
Description:
------------
PHP Version: PHP 5.3.3-1ubuntu9.3 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Jan 12
2011
16:07:38)
GeoIP version: GEO-106 20110510 Build 1 Copyright (c) 2011 MaxMind Inc All
Rights Reserved
Description:
Upon calling geoip_region_name_by_code for certain regions, the region name
returned is empty.
Ex:
echo geoip_region_name_by_code("AG","08"); // Returns: Saint Philip
echo geoip_region_name_by_code("AG","09"); // Returns: Nothing
What is expected:
The geoip_region_name_by_code function to return the correct region name
for all
regions described in the standard http://www.maxmind.com/app/fips10_4
(Note: This link is even published on
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.geoip-region-name-by-code.php)
The issue:
As mentioned on
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.geoip-region-name-by-
code.php
The data is taken directly from the GeoIP Library and not from any
database.
This means that the php geoip library has to be updated.
Solution:
Small mindless work of updating the source code of the php geoip library
with
the missing regions. (44 of them):
Country Region
AG 09
CG 13
CG 14
HU 43
