The Little Guy Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 what about using exec? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/202344-get-mac-address/#findComment-1060960 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Don't think so. MAC address is not normally being sent over internet. You would need to have an executable on client's computer.

ignace Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 You need ActiveX but I see more and more people install something like NoScript (or AdBlocker?) like my Dad did (as did a few of his friends/colleagues) as they grow tired of all those annoying misleading ads/pop-ups/survey's which means JS is disabled for these users and you will have to come up with a solution that requires to look further then your nose.
