Abstract
The Geolocation API allows us to obtain information about the current geographic position of the user (or at least the position of the system on which the browser is running). This isn’t part of the HTML5 specification, but it is usually grouped up as part of the new features associated with HTML5. Table 38-1 provides the summary for this chapter.
