Get IP in HTML of client

Question

I'm creating my own html file, and it's NOT going to be on any server or website of any sort, but it's going to stay on my computer as an HTML file. I need my html file to show the IP of the client. I don't need the IP address to go anywhere, I just want my HTML file to display the IP. Please help. I've been trying to find some sort of code that can do this for 3 days now. I just started HTML, so if you could give the whole code as an example, please do.

Why? This can be only your local PC's IPs, and you already know those.

You are looking in wrong direction.

HTML itself has no such capabilities, but HTTP server and protocol do. If you just use HTML as a file, no matter what you do, it has nothing to do with HTTP in particular, and with networking in general. HTML is nothing but a markup language for documents.

You can't do it through HTML as SA stated HTML is only a markup language for documents. It doesn't do anything - just structures content.You can do it in PHP like..

or in javascript..
