Re: URGENT - owa_util.get_cgi_env('REMOTE_ADDR')

Hi there.

How are you calling the stored procedure from your form? Directly from PL/SQL? Then the stored procedure is invoked directly, not involving iAS, thus not setting up the PL/SQL Web Toolkit with CGI variable values, etc. If from PL/SQL using a URL this will probably be executed on the iAS, not on the client. So you need some mechanism of obtaining the client's IP address, probably through some Java code running in the form on the client. You can specialize the look and feel of the form so I guess you can inject other Java code as well.

Hope this helps.
