203.0. "Capture e-mail address" by HGOVC::ANDREWFUNG () Tue Jan 28 1997 02:09

    Hello,
    
    	Is it possible to write a java program to capture the e-mail
    address of the people who have visited my web page ? If it can, how to
    do it theoretically ?
    
    Rgds,
    Andrew.

	There is no such thing available in java. You maybe thinking abut Javascript: there used to be a way to do just that with javascripts but I have no idea if it's still possible. Thierry

	If someone could read my mail address, I'd be very unhappy...

	re: .1 >>There is no such thing available in java. Let's be clear. One has access to 'username' in the Java language. However, from an applet, access to username is specifically denied, as part of the Applet security model. See page 194 of 'Java In A Nutshell'. Dave

	re .3: But username .NE. mail address anyway... I usually use Netscape Navigator from a PC which doesn't do Email in any shape, form or color...
