Getting a User's IP address with JavaScript

Finding a user's IPAddress. This works in the Netscape browser ONLY !!!

• Netscape - java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();
• Internet Exporer - java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHostName();

function getIPAddress ()
{

	browserVersion = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
	ipAdd = "";

	if (isNS4)
	{
		if (navigator)
		{
			if (navigator.javaEnabled())
			{
				ipAdd = java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost();
				ipName = java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();
			}
		}
	}

	if (ipAdd != "")
	{
		document.writeln ("<H2>Your IP Address is " + ipAdd + ".</H2>");
		if (ipAdd.substring(0,7) == "17.254.")
		{
			document.write("<H3>Welcome, visitor from Apple!</H3>");
		}
	}

}
