Hi people,

I’m new in terms mobione.

How can I get lat and long GPS data?

I want to get this after a button press and let me just show as text.

In the later course I want to send this data to a website.

Unfortunately I can not find any information about it.

Timo

getGeoDatas = function(){
  
    var long = "";
    var lat = "";

    //how i can get the GPS Data?
    
  
    $('#m1-Untitled1-textField1').val(long + " / " + lat);
}​

You need to use the Cordova API:

// onSuccess Callback
// This method accepts a Position object, which contains the
// current GPS coordinates
//
var onSuccess = function(position) {
alert(‘Latitude: ‘ + position.coords.latitude + ‘\n’ +
‘Longitude: ‘ + position.coords.longitude + ‘\n’ +
‘Altitude: ‘ + position.coords.altitude + ‘\n’ +
‘Accuracy: ‘ + position.coords.accuracy + ‘\n’ +
‘Altitude Accuracy: ‘ + position.coords.altitudeAccuracy + ‘\n’ +
‘Heading: ‘ + position.coords.heading + ‘\n’ +
‘Speed: ‘ + position.coords.speed + ‘\n’ +
‘Timestamp: ‘ + position.timestamp + ‘\n’);
};

// onError Callback receives a PositionError object
//
function onError(error) {
alert(‘code: ‘ + error.code + ‘\n’ +
‘message: ‘ + error.message + ‘\n’);
}

//Place this in the button you want to get the data with
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(onSuccess, onError);
