I would probably have to hit the web service via a http request so it could establish a context. But can't I somehow determine the IP address of the client without doing that?
Google hasn't been any help yet.

Do you access the web service from the client application with a HTTP connection? If so you are hitting the web service with an HTTP request.

Probably because of the security restriction about accessing the client machine. Even just giving up the IP address would be a breach of protocol.

Maybe you don't think it is sniping but I find it offensive that you should refer to my ego and not just state where I was wrong, which I was and happened to admit it when I saw the error.
Take it to the soapbox if you want to post things like that.

No, I'm not confusing that.
Granted, during development, the web service is hosted on the local machine (which mine is). I full-well expect the IP address to be 127.0.0.1 in this case.
My *problem* is that using HttpContext.Current.blah_blah is evidently not the right way to retrieve the client IP address in a web service. The client in this case is a desktop application that happens to be running on the same box as the web service. I just want the web service to tell me the IP address it thinks the client is at. In the "real world", that IP would probably be a router/firewall that sits between the client machine and the internet.
Now, does it really sound like I'm confused?

I realize now that you are not confusing that. My mistake.
I don't know if you will be able to retrieve the client machine IP address because of security concerns.
That is what makes it an interesting question for me.

Yes or a proxy server if one exists.

Sorry I misunderstood your question before that you are calling a web service from a desktop application.
Probably a good approach to take is to debug the desktop application and view some of the structures in a watch window. It is a hit or miss process so try a few different structures.
Maybe start out by assigning some things found in System to various objects. Intellisense [sp?] will tell you the object type when you select it. Assign it to a suitable object and put a watch on it.
Set a breakpoint after the assignments and you will then be able to expand the object and see what it contains.
As I mentioned it is more an art than a science, but after doing a few your instincts will develop and you will zero in on the promising structures.
Once you find out where the address resides the next problem will be to get it from the web service. I don't know if this is possible.
This is an interesting problem because it crosses the bounds between client machine and Internet application. There are serious security concerns about accessing the clients machine from the Internet.
Let us know if you figure out a way to do this.

I am not trying to access the client machine. I simply want to determine its IP address at the server, and then return that address to the client.

Actually you are. You are trying to get the client machine to give up some information, the IP address.

It's not "giving up" anything. The originating IP address is part of every TCP/IP communication. If it wasn't, there would be no way to issue a response to a request.

I need to create chart that contains lines according to y=ax+b. After that the user will be able to click on those lines and get some info.
The problem is that I don't know on which container to draw those lines. This container must include click event otherwise how can I click on line if the container do not have click event?

For this kind of features why you are not looking at any ASP.NET Chart Control ? That can easily resolve your issue and even you can extend them as you want. If you are using .NET 3.5 SP1 Framework, Microsoft having their own chart control inbuild with it.

I have already checked for a chart control and found for ASP.net 2, but all those charts do not support click event on the drawn line.

I am relatively new to ASP.NET Web Parts and would like to implement a solution using ASP.NET rather than a workaround like I have in the past. Having extensive experience with Apache servers I can, and have, code a workaround using DHTML and JavaScript, but would like to learn the ASP.NET way to accomplish this common and seemingly simple task.
I am developing a SharePoint Web Part and for discussion lets say it has a drop down list and a button. The scenario is pretty simple the user selects an item from the drop down list and clicks on the button to process the entry.
The button fires off an AutoPostBack and when the button onClick event fires after return from the AutoPostBack the selected index of the drop down box is -1. How do I capture the the selected index of the drop down box after clicking the button but before the round trip to the server or an alternative solution?

You just need to handle the OnSelectedIndexChanged event of the dropdownlist.
