Asked By ceceliadestineyy 40 points N/A Posted on - 11/20/2012

I'm in the middle of building my codes right now and I'm stuck on how to get free get currency from ip using JavaScript. I want something that if a visitor of my site will be coming from the US, a dollar sign will appear and if the visitor will be coming from Japan, a Yen sign will appear. Can I do that? Any help please?

Even though I don't recommend doing this, you'll need a good server and also there are many negative feedbacks from using this feature. 

You can simply let the user choose his own currency instead of doing that. However, if you want to follow that approach you can use EasyJQuery. It's a database of IPs, you can use it to find out the user IP and using a database of IP/currency find the user's currency. EasyJQuery is implemented in JSON so you can use it with javascript.
