我怎么知道用户的位置

Question

I try to detect the exact location of user and specially the street if i can.

I tried that using the IP but this didn't work for me because it didn't give the exact location example for what i want is Lebanon Beirut Azarieh or Lebanon Beirut ABC Achrafieh and than i want to store this location in MYSQL database table using PHP.

i tried this code here this code give a good location in Firefox on Localhost

but Online on Firefox and Google chrome give me that Your Location: Not Available

also it didn't work on phone browser iPhone and android (safari,chrome,...)

the idea is a user in the company want to use the website on his phone a special page on the website when he use it i want to take here exact location with the street and store this in database

Answer 1

You can use a flag, enableHighAccuracy:true

Here's an example code:

$(document).ready(function($){
  if (navigator.geolocation){
      navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position){
        latitude = position.coords.latitude;
        longitude = position.coords.longitude;
          //alert('latitude: '+latitude+' longitude: '+longitude);
      }, function(error) {
          alert('Error occurred. Error code: ' + error.code);
      },{timeout:20000,enableHighAccuracy: true});
  }
  else{
    alert('no geolocation support');
  }
});

And I also want to quote that enableHighAccuracy depends from device to device.
