Hi, I do this with a simple .jsp script in the Flex app. You can include something like the following:
getIPAddress.jsp: <clientip> <valGet><%=request.getRemoteAddr()%></valGet> </clientip> Then call that within Flex in an HTTPService and parse the return. HTTPService.result.clientip.valGet , etc.... Then you can store that in a sharedobject or whatever you want. Hope it helps. -Michael --- In [email protected], "temporal_illusion" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I assume it's a http service you're using that calls the PHP page to > get the IP?
