Pre populating forms based on Geotargeting?

Couldn't you just use a PHP script to check the ISP provider? If it is an ISP provider that proxies people, don't autofill (or only do their country). Otherwise, autofill the form.

Would you be autofilling order forms on websites you control? If so just find where this code is on your site and add the bolded part.

<input type="text" name="city" size="20" value="citycode">

So you would replace citycode with the google (or maxmind) script that outputs the city the user is in.
It should be no problem getting a coder to do something like this for ~$40.
 


you have to pay $99 to get the option to break down AOL users (City, State, Zip) but if you just want the country then you can go with the free version

maxmind's php api
install this and read through the documentation and you will see how you can echo out basic PHP statements with the City, State, Zip and Country name.. it's pretty easy and probably 70% accurate
