Usage?

[paulcanning]

How exactly do I use this?

I tried by adding the .js file into my index.html file, and then in my script, changed getCurrentPosition to getAccurateCurrentPosition (as outlined in the readme)

But all I got was a white splash screen with a spinner.

Could you please explain how to use it properly?

I have created a script which defines the geolocationSuccess, geolocationError, geoprogress functions and optionally an options variable. Then I called navigator.geolocation.getAccurateCurrentPosition at the end.

function letsGeolocate {
    var output = document.getElementById("output");  // the div where messages will appear
    var options = {
    };
    function geolocationSuccess(position) {
        var latitude = position.coords.latitude;
        var longitude = position.coords.longitude;
        output.innerHTML = 'Latitude: ' + latitude + '<br/>Longitude: ' + longitude
    }

    function geolocationError() {
        output.innerHTML = "Unable to retrieve your location";
    }

    function geoprogress() {
        output.innerHTML = '<p>Locating in progress</p>';
    }
    navigator.geolocation.getAccurateCurrentPosition(success, error, geoprogress, options);
}

HTML:

<button id='geolocate' onclick=letsGeolocate()>
