Hi all,

How can I show dynamic map in my webworks aplicatiobn for BlackBerry? I have tried different ways to acomplish that and nowreached nowhere.

Tried:

#1: Google Maps JavaScript API V2

Eg:

     var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));

Error: GMap2 is undefined

#2: Tried navigator.geolocation.

Eg:

    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(geolocationSuccess, geolocationError);

Problem: Never executes the events geolocationSuccess and  geolocationError

Please put your thoughts and help me.

For a tutorial on how to use Geolocation you can check out the following link:

http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Web-Development/Using-HTML5-Geolocation-in-your-Web-or-BlackB...

Can you also post up the OS version number you are attempting to use?  For dynamic mapping can you explain the features you would like to use?

Hello,

Thank you very much for your time to look into this.

I have followed same steps in the tutorial and I found the events "geolocationSuccess" and "geolocationError" never fires, event though the line

navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(geolocationSuccess, geolocationError, options);

executes fine.

Here I am pasting my relevant code:

function locationUpdated() {
    if (navigator.geolocation !== null) {
        var options;
        alert("navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition executing");
        navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(geolocationSuccess, geolocationError, options);
        alert(navigator.geolocation);  // Got Object
    }
    else {
        alert("HTML5 geolocation is not supported.");
    }
}

function geolocationSuccess(position) {
    alert("Inside Success");  // Not getting alert even after waiting long time
}

function geolocationError(error) {
    alert("An unexpected error occurred [" + error.code + "]: " + error.message); // Not getting alert even after waiting long time
}

I am having script references as shown below on page:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>

    <script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/html5_init.js" id="html5_init"></script>

Tried adding Permission for domains in config.xml

  - added http://code.google.com

  - added http://maps.google.com

  - allowed almost every features for these domains and localhost.

  - Set the GPS location in simulator also

I am stuck now that "why the events not firing" ?

I am using BlackBerry 9550 Simulator.

I need dynamic map and street view in my webworks application.
