Re: Maemo5 MicroB: javascript API for fullscreen, location, cursor enable?
Hi, a little update on this: The GeoLocation API is in general available in mozilla, but there is no specific back-end implemented in Maemo yet to use it. There is now a browser extension, which implements the back-end implementation for the GeoLocation API in extras-devel. It is called maemo-geolocation [1]. Feel free to test it [2].

Re: Maemo5 MicroB: javascript API for fullscreen, location, cursor enable?
Thanks to Nokia for the great input, this works VERY well :-) (!!!) I will shortly post an update of maeMaps on tmo including this function. Can you explain it to me how it works in terms of accuracy? My first queries only gave me a result in the center of Zurich, over 100 km off my current position. Was that through Google or over the Maemo Geolocation API? (Provider/Cell based?) On subsequent tries however, the GPS was active and gave perfect information (gotta round down these 15 decimal places of lat/long a bit :-). And what happens if I call getCurrentPosition() using the enableHighAccuracy PositionOption? Thanks again!

Re: Maemo5 MicroB: javascript API for fullscreen, location, cursor enable?
Hi, have a look at the liblocation API documentation [1]. If it doesn't have a GPS fix yet, then it takes other methods into account to calculate your position. In the documentation is the accuracy given. Have you used a SIM-card in the device? 1. http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Using_Connectivity_Components/Using_Location_API#Location_methods Cheers Daniel ext Thomas Waelti wrote: Thanks to Nokia for the great input, this works VERY well :-) (!!!)

Re: Maemo5 MicroB: javascript API for fullscreen, location, cursor enable?
Hi - Switch to fullscreen This is not implemented. But if you need that functionality and have a use-case for it, you could file a bug against that, and then it could be taken into account. - Access location information The GeoLocation API is in general available in mozilla, but there is no specific back-end implemented in Maemo yet to use it. - Enable the cursor Which cursor do you mean? The interaction cursor in the Fremantle browser or the real X-mozilla cursor?
