Ian, Post me your javascript code.

Just seeing if I can find the code that will allow me to create this cookie in perl, then as you said I could pick this cookie up using the Coldfusion code below <cfif isDefined("cookie.localip") and cookie.localip EQ cgi.remote_addr > STOP! <cfabort> </cfif> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 July 2005 15:55 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Restricting Access Ian, client variables are a feature of coldfusion and can only be set/retrieved on the server side. When you're looking at the form, you're on the client side. If you use my javascript method in my previous post, you should be able to access the same cookie on both the client and server side. If you don't want to use a regular cookie, then your only option I can see is to re-write the form processor in cold fusion. If you have to use client variables, then that is definitely your only option.

I have tried setting the hidden field below <input type="hidden" name="sent" value="yes"> Then using the code below to set a client variable when the form is submitted but still no luck! <cfif isDefined("form.sent")> <cfset client.localip = #cgi.remote_addr#> </cfif> How can I set the client variable to their IP Address when they submit the form ??? -----Original Message----- From: Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 July 2005 15:10 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Restricting Access How are you setting this client variable if the calling page is posting to a perl script? I am not sure how this is possible? You would need to have form posting to cf page which sets the client var. -----Original Message----- From: Ian Vaughan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 July 2005 15:15 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Restricting Access Still not working very frustrating, can you see from the code why the form keeps displaying instead of the STOP message as I have submitted the form ! When I run a cfdump var="#client.localip#"> it comes back with an error ' Element LOCALIP is undefined in CLIENT. ' <cfif isDefined("client.localip") and client.localip EQ #cgi.remote_addr# > STOP! <cfabort> </cfif> <cfif isDefined("form.v4")> <cfset client.localip = #cgi.remote_addr#> </cfif> <form action="cgi-bin/subqs.pl" method="post" target="_top"> <input type="hidden" name=":SURVEY:" value="Questionnaire2"> <input type="hidden" name=":EMAIL:" value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> <input type="hidden" name=":USERID:" value="069/001"> <input type="hidden" name="V4" value=""> <input type="hidden" name="V20" value=""> <input type="hidden" name="V21" value=""> </form> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:212751 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
