Browser location variable

[PeteM]

Is there a PHP variable that provides the location of the browser (e.g. US, UK, etc)?

No, afaik there isn't. You can parse $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'], and maybe some other hints in $_SERVER[], but being sent from the client this unfortunately is unreliable information.

Still that's about the most you can get without geocoding the IP address.

Or you could ask them the location and store it in a cookie.
