A little javascript class to handle geolocation in a web browser

https://github.com/FabFab/GPS-in-your-browser

How it works :

GPS.get();
[...]
var latitude = GPS.position.latitude;
var longitude = GPS.position.longitude;

or with a callback:

GPS.get(updatePosition);

function updatePosition() {
    var latitude = GPS.position.latitude;
    var longitude = GPS.position.longitude;
    [...]
}
