try posting in a server-side language forum (asp, vbscript, perl), this isn't quite the correct forum for that. i'd try the perl forum, you'll probably get a solution from there. adam@aauser.com

As luciddream implied, there is no HTML or CSS solution to your problem, nor a client-side scripting solution. You'll have to either use nslookup server-side, or you could try going to

I think they offer some HTML code which you can place on your site and have it look it up on their site.
