You can't do it with PHP. You could use Javascript and pass it as a
form variable.
Depends why you want to do this, since its easy to get around it -
JS could be turned off, or the form var could be overidden.
If say you wanted to ban users from a particular IP then I wouldn't
trust this method, but if you just want the IP for cosmetic reasons
then I'm sure you can live with the pitfalls.
