Today when I went to <http://news.yahoo.com/> I noticed that the site
picked up my geo location (accurately BTW).
Unfortunately this should _not_ have happened as at the time I had:
1. About:config: geo.enable=false (this should turn off geolocation)
2. Permissions: Share Location=always ask (with geolocation on, I should
receive a prompt asking if I want to let the site use geolocation)
So I set Permissions: Share Location=Block, cleared cache (memory &
disk/all), cleared with 'Clear Private Data - all except passwords),
opened new browser window & again tried news.yahoo.com. Again the site
is showing my geolocation.
I next went to <http://browserspy.dk/> scrolled down & clicked on
Geolocation & sure enough, geolocation is _enabled_.
I can't locate an open bug of this type on:
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=geolocation>
So before I open a bug report, can anyone else verify?
It works correctly on my system. Windows 7 SeaMonkey 2.21 User agent:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/24.0 SeaMonkey/2.21
Build identifier: 20130916112225
When I go to http://browserspy.dk/geolocation.php with
geo.enable=false it says:
Geolocation supported in browser = yes (which is correct, SeaMonkey
does support it)
My location based on ip is correct
The ip based map is correct
The Geolocation Based Map is blank and when I click on Get Position I
get a returned data is null error which indicates that SeaMonkey is
not returning my geolocation.
If I go to the same page with geo.enable=true everything is the same
until I click on get position for the geobased map and then I get a
popup telling me that this web site wants to know my location and asks
what I want to do (Share Location, Don't share, never Share, always
share, not now)
So as far as I can tell it is working as intended on my system
