I'm supposed to be storing the user's IP address in a table. I looked up the docs and chose CGI.REMOTE_ADDR as the "right" variable. Now the client emails me and says that all of the form submissions are coming from 127.0.0.1. I check in the database and indeed, every one of the submissions is shown as coming from that address. So I thought I'd try remote_host, but that one does the same thing.
So then I dumped the entire CGI scope and every instance of IP address is lsited as 127.0.0.1. You can see here I'm dumping remote_addr and remote_host. http://bigcomfycouch.com/NEWask.cfm But when I output them via our Perl test script: http://bigcomfycouch.com/cgi-bin/env.pl I get the "correct" IP addy. What's going on? <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer certified advanced coldfusion programmer ICGLink, Inc.
