Retrieve visitor's email

Hello there,

I'd like to get the visitor's email (not for spamming....)

It's to avoid to show some content to my competitors....

Try deleting it from your server.

Altrough you may believe that I'm a spammer, I'll jsut inform you again that
I only want to avoid my competitors see some contents.

If I know the person visiting my site has the competitor's domain address, I
want to offuscate the content, nothing else.

Do you think internet is populated only by spammers??? I've better to do
with my time. Some people trying to get real things other than spamming !
If you don't want to spread this kind of info, look at my email address.

Short of figuring out a way for PHP script to hack your users computer
and break into their email client, I'm not aware of anyway to pull an
email address through the browser.

Another option is the use a remote_addr with an it-then statement.
Note, this will only work if you know your competitors _static_ IP
address.

if($_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] == 000.000.000.000) {
//do something different
}

I've already tried it, but if the user uses a laptop from anywhere ??? the
only think I'm sure is that he has set an email address from his company.

I think you're missing the point here. If it *was* possible for a website to
work out the email address of every visitor that came along *without* having
to ask, then we'd *all* be getting bucket loads of spam every day.

It's impossible. It doesn't matter how saintly your intentions are. It just
can't be done. If you don't want your competitors looking at parts of your
website, then just take them down.
