> Why? does the same for me, even using the google example page: http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/clientlocation/clientlocation.html
a search of this group turns up lots of similar queries, and the answer seems to boil down to the fact that some places it works and some places it doesn't http://groups.google.com/group/google-maps-api/search?group=google-maps-api&q=client+location&qt_g=Search+this+group and then goes on to say that the AJAX API forum (http:// groups.google.com/group/google-ajax-search-api) is a better place for questions about this service (although the following quote, from that forum is less than encouraging: "Simply put, the ClientLocation feature is to be considered absolutely unreliable for production applications.") fwiw, the example page that you quote (http://www.urbanclaim.com/ new.php) doesn't find me via ClientLocation or Google Gears, but eventually via W3C standard... and even then it's a couple of hundred km off (probably quite accurate as to where my ISP is located though)... which says to me that it's a smart idea building some fallback conditions into your code (like that page does) and not to be trusting it to be too accurate, either way -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
