Hi all, I can across this today and thought this might be interesting for OpenLayers Users.
https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Using_geolocation The short story is that it is a JavaScript API that lets you get a FF 3.5+ clients location, if they want to share it. This is like GeoIP, but built into FF. You can get the initial location when they browse to your page, and you can get their updated position if they are a mobile device on the move, so you can scroll the map as they move, or recompute a route based on their current location and a destination, etc. Very cool to see this kind of thing moving into the browser. -Steve W _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users
