navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition sometimes works sometimes doesn't

Question

So I have a pretty simple bit of JS using the navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition jammy.

$(document).ready(function(){
  $(\"#business-locate, #people-l         


        

Answer 1

I have been having similar issues, and have been looking into the possibility that browsers have limits on how often getCurrentPosition can be called. It seems I can often get a location, but if i refresh the page right away it will time out. If I wait for a bit, I can usually get a location again. This usually happens with FF. In Chrome and Safari, I have not yet noticed getCurrentPosition timing out. Just a thought...

Although I cannot find any documentation to support this, it was a conclusion I came to after much testing. Perhaps someone else has has some info about that?
