Hi All

1. How can i get the Mobile Number and IMEI Number from which my web page is browsed?

2. I have also developed a .jar J2me application which run on mobile and send user reactions on my webpage. Its working good but i also want to send the existing mobile number of this device? Is It Possible?

I have created a .jar application which i m allowing only for our registered users and only they can use it. through this application our client can access their details like account balance, last transaction, latest things for him from our website.

Our clients are known by their provided unique mobile number only. so dats why i need the user number whenever he send request through the .jar application only.

Now if our .jar application (J2ME) can fetch then this is will also gud.

If any one has other solution for that then please share with us to guide us.

(One more thing that mobile number is the only way to know him because we also have facility to check their status by sneding SMS on our long code.)
if we able to fetch the IMSI number of sim then this will also work for us. but ligin Id and password can never...

Thanks

You can't get the mobile number or IMEI number of a mobile phone from which your web page is browsed due to security concerns, its sort of illegal thing as Krunal said. Being a web server, you are not allowed to get such information from client. You can only get the Phone Model or some browser related information.

However, if you connect your mobile phone to your PC via cable, then you can get its Phone & IMEI number through a desktop application. Could it be applicable for your scenario ?

Hope it got clears to you.

Looks like you're dealing with some illegal application. ;) (just kidding)
No, it's not possible, you just can't do that. The server can't let you go through it, so far as Security is concerned.

You can't. For very, very good security reasons, the browser (and thus the server) cannot access the mobile or IMEI number.

That is assuming that it is a mobile at all, rather than a desktop, laptop, tablet, or internet-enabled fridge.
