vbcoach Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Hello. I have a sports web site that I have a team registration form for leagues signup. I am getting a single person submiting false teams daily that I have to manually remove. I do not want to place undue pressure on teams signing up, but do want to find the idiot trying to push Levitra and Viagra onto my site. Can someone help me with a code that will grab the users IP address that presses SUBMIT on the form? Once I have the IP, at least I can block that (for now). Right now this guy(?) is just a nuissance and not flooding my site (yet), so I think this action will work for the time being. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

vbcoach Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 By the way, would this go on the front registration form, or the backend processing form?

Mchl Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 How should I know? I've never seen your app. You should probably use it with the form that gets abused.
