      This information cannot be obtained by browsers because of security considerations. If the browser is allowed to run executable programs on the client system then it could do all sorts of damage. I don't think users would be happy about that.

      Use the best guess

        Modern operating systems do there best to create a barrier between the browser and the operating system. You could probably do it on the server hosting the website, if the OS is like Server 2003, but that's not going to happen on the client side, unless you can get the user to download a program to do that for you. Javascript and JQuery runs in the DOM, which is supported by the browser, and cannot cross that barrier.

          client and server connections - use JAVA (Oracle), not JavaScript.
