Re: Computer Name

check out the stuff in the $_SERVER super global array... the contents vary from server to server, but they can include the useragent string (browser, version, platform/os, etc -- if set by the browser) the IP address (if available & set, possibly the IP of a firewall, or anything else really), and other stuff. The trick is not to rely on ANYTHING from the client side... the user agent string may not be set, the IP address may be fake, or change on each request, etc etc. Do NOT rely on this stuff to "make or break" your application (eg tying a session id to an IP), but perhaps use it for other reasons (eg statistics gathering).
