  Here are a couple of options:

  1. Use a REST service, e.g.

  $.ajax({
         url: "http://freegeoip.net/json/"
      }).then(function(data) {
         console.log(data.ip); //data contains other things, like country, latitude, longitute, etc
      });
  

  2. Append a 3rd party script to your page: Add this code on form load:

  $('head').append('<script type="text/javascript" src="http://l2.io/ip.js?var=myip"></script>')
  

  This will append a script to your page. Then you will be able to access the IP via myip variable, e.g.:

  alert(myip);
  

  This (probably) wouldn't work if your site uses the https protocol. Also, from stackoverflow: "...this can be easily spoofed (through either use of proxies or spoofed request headers...".
