You could have a look at this
- https://github.com/DonaldMcC/gdms/blob/master/views/default/user.html
It integrates a javascript geolocation plugin to web2py user registration
and also Leonel Camara's excellent plugin_location_picker which together
allowed me to do everything I was wanting to do. Only downside seems to be
that I think you now need to provide payment details to use Google
geolocation API's for the mapping piece and address lookup piece - however
it is still free for light to moderate use on published websites.
