how to get user ip address in javascript
// You can't extract the the public ip from with in the browser // but you CAN use a third party, there are a lot of them out there // I use www.ipify.org/ // because, according to them: // // 1. You can use it without limit (even if you're doing millions of // requests per minute). // 2. ipify is completely open source (check out the GitHub repository). //Here's a WORKING JS EXAMPLE: <script> function getIP(json) { alert("My public IP address is: " + json.ip); } </script> <script src="https://api.ipify.org?format=jsonp&callback=getIP"></script> // as seperate script tag <script type="application/javascript" src="https://api.ipify.org?format=jsonp&callback=getIP"> </script>
