show connection stats

[clemens]

Hi,

anyone knows if its possible to show some stats of the client (connection, own ip, dloaded bytes, uploaded bytes?)

I would like to give the user some information like this while hes surfing specific sites...

You can get some of the information on the server-side (specifically the client IP address) but not through client-side JavaScript.

Okay,
then is there a way to get some information about the server-client-connection and return it via php or something else as string to show up on the client side?

You can find out how to show the user's IP address (in 3 languages - PHP, ASP and SSI) on WebDevFaqs (http://webdevfaqs.com/php.php#getip).
