Also some browsers have a navigator.geolocation feature built in. That is more accurate than than IP location services but needs a user confirmation by a button.
There is a clear explanation in 'basics' section of API v3 documentation. Also there is a code example that first tries navigator.geolocation and then IP location service. http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/v3/basics.html#DetectingUserLocation NOTE that the code example is written in v3 syntax. Someone should translate that to v2. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
