Collect IP

[Jake Klaus]

Is there an easy way to collect IP address when users opt-in from my
website? Need to collect IP, date and time, and email address during
opt-in. I can get the email by having the user enter it in a form field,
but what about the others?

The IP address is sent in whenever a page is requested. WIth ASP, you can
get this from the ServerVariables collection. With ASP.NET, it is a bit
simpler, as the model helps you. Date and Time are easu tp get from the
server. In ASP, for example, you would simply do something like:

strTime = Now()

You can get more granular. There are plenty of tutorials on the web for both
ASP and ASP.NET. If you are UNIX based, you will have to complete these
steps with a CGI script, but that is fairly commonplace, as well.
