Just to clarify this response a bit, the object returned by viewer.getField(opensocial.Person.Field.CURRENT_LOCATION) is an instance of opensocial.Address. So the following is the preferred way of retrieving the user's country:
var address = viewer.getField(opensocial.Person.Field.CURRENT_LOCATION); output(address.getField(opensocial.Address.Field.COUNTRY)); The API reference provides a listing of other address fields you can retrieve: http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/docs/0.7/reference/opensocial.Address.Field.html Cheers! - Jason On Mar 19, 11:57 am, Jason <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi puneet.
