You can't get the country name by simply reading a request parameter. It
can be done, however, by examining the IP address and then looking up the
results in a database that maps IP addresses to their countries. There is
a software package that will do it for you. Check out IPCRACK at
http://www.component2k.com/ It is probably not 100% accurate since the
mapping table would have to be updated regularly but it might be sufficient.
