Thank you, Tim Neil
That link ( tutorial ) really helps me a lot but the problem remains same. My application runs on firefox (in my computer ) successfully but in Blackberry Browser (of simulator) it is not running i think call to geolocationSuccess(position) method is never made in BB browser as the alert message box in this method never popup. Following is my code.
