I was wondering if there was a way that Javascript could get the computer info: like screen size, operating system, ip address(for a type of validation I am working on), etc... Is there a way for it to gather that info, then submit it along with a form? Thanks for your help!

It can get the screen size (screen.width and screen.height) and OS (navigator.userAgent -> then parsing the output), but can't get the IP. For that, you will need a server-side language.
