Ip ???

[_PANKAJ_]

can any1 tell me how to get the IP adress of the person emailed to me... who filled my form ?:confused: ...

$ENV{REMOTE_ADD} is the variable which stores IP address of the client. Pass this variable while submitting the form and fetch it in your script.

Email Address: <input type="text" name="email" size ="20"><br>
Subject: <input type="text" name="subject" size ="20"><br>
Message: <textarea name="message" cols="60" rows="6"></textarea><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">

Absolutely... This will suffice.. In fact i mistakenly wrote earlier that you need to "pass" the variable while submitting the form. NO need to do anything in the html. And the variable is $ENV{REMOTE_ADDR} and not $ENV{REMOTE_ADD} as i earlier posted. Sorry for the goofup.

Hi Pankaj,
You probably didn't take note of my last post. The variable you need to print is $ENV{REMOTE_ADDR} and not $ENV{REMOTE_ADD}. I missed the 'R' in my first post.

What do you exactly mean by "the user PC info"? For all the Environment variables containd in %ENV, you can have a look at them by running the following script -
#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

print "<tt>\n";
foreach $key (sort keys(%ENV))
{
print "$key = $ENV{$key}<p>";
}
