I could not get the form method to work, so ended up passing an eventlink
url to my javascript and adding parameters to it. Works a treat and simple.
Link link =
componentResources.createEventLink("geolocation", null);
final String eventLinkURI = link.toAbsoluteURI();
ajaxResponseRenderer.addCallback(new JavaScriptCallback() {
@Override
public void run(JavaScriptSupport javascriptSupport) {
javascriptSupport.addScript(
"locate('" + eventLinkURI + "');");
}
});
function locate(eventLinkURI) {
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation
.getCurrentPosition(function (position)
{
var geolink = eventLinkURI
+ "?lat=" + position.coords.latitude
+ "&long=" + position.coords.longitude;
$.ajax({url: geolink});
}, geoError);
}
}
