Yes you can trace the country from where the client is originating.....You
can extract the IP address by server variables and then your system
administrator can decipher it to find the gateway...But the IP address is
not very reliable ...Still you can find the country of origin atleast.

Hi bala,
The administrator can deipher the octets and find out
from your service provider the gateway from which the
request is coming...I am not very sure which octet
actually contains this info.. With this octet you can
find out the country in which this gateway exists.
Every gateway has a particular no.

hi bala and ajay,
actually we can find using the ip as u said.
but of course this is done by manually verifying whether the IP digits
against a set of ones we have or ripe database for example.
But the actual problem here is that ;I need to know the country from where
requests orginate
as my response depends on that.To say exactly i need to track if the request
is coming from UK
else i should pass on a sorry message saying that the user cannot access
this
site due to his geographical location.
Regards
hema

A less reliable method (but easier to implement) would be to use
"window.navigator.userLanguage" or "window.navigator.systemLanguage", or
even "window.navigator.browserLanguage". It depends on what you need to do.
For example, someone in the UK should have this set to "en-gb English",
someone in Germany should have it set to "de German", etc...
You can retrieve this with some client side script, and then submit it back
to the server. However, as far as I know, there's nothing in the
"response.servervariables" collection that gives you locale.
Cheers,
Rob
