If not supported, a message is displayed to the user. If getCurrentPosition() runs successfully, a coordinates object is returned to the function specified in the parameter showPositionThe showPosition() function obtains and displays the longitude and latitudeHandling errors and RejectionThe second parameter of the getCurrentPosition() method is used to handle errors. It specifies the function to be run when obtaining the user's location fails:
function showError(error)
{
switch(error.code)
{
case error.PERMISSION_DENIED:
x.innerHTML="User denies access to geographical location request. "
" " x .innerHTML="The request for the user's geographical location timed out."
##getCurrentPosition() method - return data
If the position is obtained successfully, the getCurrentPosition() method returns object. The latitude, longitude, and accuracy properties are always returned. If available, the other following properties are returned.
Properties #coords.longitude Longitude as a decimal number coords.accuracy Position accuracy
coords.altitudeAccuracy Position of Altitude accuracy
coords.heading Direction, in degrees from true north
coords.speed Speed, in meters per second timestamp Date/time of response
