Javascript internet explorer important

[omarello]

hi all,

please help me on this, it is really important.

i need to get the ip address of client accessing my jsp page for a project my company is working on. i have succefully retreived the ip but only on netscape, i have read around and founf that it is not possible with IE, but i need to confirm this.

is there any way i can get the ip address using javascript or even java or anything?????

here is what i used to get the ip address

code:


<script>

window . onerror = null;



hostaddress = hostname = "(unknown)";



localhost = java . net . InetAddress . getLocalHost ();

hostaddress = localhost . getHostAddress ();

hostname = localhost . getHostName ();

</script>



<script>



document . writeln ("<p>Your IP address is <b>" + hostaddress + "</b>.</p>");

document . writeln ("<p>Your hostname is <b>" + hostname + "</b>.</p>");



</script>

thats the script i have in my jsp page
and running TOMCAt 4.0
thanx a lot

Err, I'm not entirely sure what you're doing there. If you're using JSP it should be as easy as:

code:


<%

System.out.println("<p>Your IP address is <b>" + request.getRemoteAddr() + "</b>.</p>"); 



System.out.println("<p>Your hostname is <b>" + request.getRemoteHost() + "</b>.</p>"); 

%>

hehe i know i just did the same thing as soon as i posted the thread, hehe i was like i am an idiot, cause i was thinking of javascript i forgot that i could just use the request object.

neways thanx a lot.

i just realized that there is no way to do it using javascript only.. unless u are running netscape.

thanx a lot.
