Hello there, As far as my experience goes, I haven't been successful in retreiving a user's IP address. If so, you could record it in a cookie file, but getting it is the problem. Go here for a set of cookie functions if you need them.

getting the ip address is the easy part i just cant figure out the cookie part thanks for the link Tim

How do you get the IP address with JavaScript?

here you go can you send that link again? The one above does not work Thanks!! oh ya uncomment all the lines before you try to use it.. // //var ip = '' //function ipval() { //document.myform.ipaddr.value=ip; //} //window.onload=ipval // // // //

Send me your email address it will not let me post it here it keeps cuting parts of it out, when i try to post it. Also will you resend that link the one above does not work thanks Tim
