IP help please

spacker_2

I have a website where people can fill out an online form and submit some info but just of late ive had a few submissions who have been a bit rude to say the least so on the confirmation page i want their IP to be revealed to them so they might think twice about sending rubbish to me.

But how do I do this I mean what code is needed?

Cheers for any help

I'd agree, it works fab as long as you put in the correct key words. I've spent ages before searching for stuff trying to figure out the exact termininology!

So was that link above no use to you? Plenty more in less than 4 seconds.

you are probably best not using javascript as if the user has javascript diabled nothing will show. you are probably better to use php as it is server side, this is the first link off google i got HERE after searching for php ip script

This is exactly what I need otherwise a Internal Server problem arises with Java if not enabled plus the code isnt quite 100% correct for what I need to do.

i dont know how advanced your coding skills are mine arent too great when it comes to php but i know its not too hard to have the IP address sent along with the form... that way you may be able to see if someone is say repeat offending and ban if necessary or w/e.
