HTML5 Geolocation tutorial

If you're trying to capture a user's latitude and longitude coordinates in order to plug into an api, below is the easiest way I have found.

function userLocation() {

if (navigator.geolocation) {

navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showData);

} else {

alert("not supported");

}

function showData(position) {

var x= position.coords.latitude;
var y = position.coords.longitude;

$("#mydiv").html("latitude: " + x + "<br/>longitude" + y);

}

}
