Ryanair and online check-in

Hi guys,
I've just spotted £5 no taxes flights to Dublin next Friday so I really want to go...anyway I just tried to do online checkin (and get rid of the £9.50 fee) for airport but it says I need to have a valid passport. Well I do it's just not in my possession.
Can you get away with using a driving license or has anyone had any luck using it?
Thanks

To qualify for Online Check-in each passenger must present either a valid passport or National Identity Card (Driving licences not accepted), issued by either the government of an EU/ European Economic Area (EEA) country or Switzerland which matches the document details printed on their online boarding pass, at both airport security and the departure gate.

You need to have the passport details when doing online check-in, ie passport number and expiry date so if you don't have the passport to hand can you get these details? You will of course need the passport to travel.
If not then you need to check in at the airport with the resultant costs and use your driving licence.0
