Re: [OT] Identify web user in intranet

[Jeff Beal]

If I were to be given this requirement, I'd just create a bookmark with 
the appropriate floor number on each computer.  For computers on the 
fourth floor, I'd create a bookmark 
'http://somecomputer/showmap?floor=4'.  I think that the problem of 
mapping dynamically allocated IP addresses to computers is too hard for 
the task at hand (displaying floor plans).  Of course, it's not as if 
it's a hard thing for users to go to a central page that has a link to 
all floor plans and click on the one they want.  (As a side note, Adobe 
once had an SVG demonstration that had a 3-D model of their building 
that users could click on to see floor plans of each floor.  *that* was 
cool.)

Just my two bits.

Hi
thanx for the mail, here is my problem we have
machines installed on different floors of building,
and we have to design a web page which will give floor
plan and display it on that machine browser, so if the
machine is on 4th floor we want to display the plan of
fourth floor, if the machine had static ip address
then i would have a cross reference table and make it
work, but since there is dynamic IP address, i cannot
do this..
how can we handle this situation,
