def test(): table = db.test if session.lat and session.lon: table.lat.default = session.lat table.lon.default = session.lon fields = None form = SQLFORM(table, fields = fields) if form.process(formname = 'form_0').accepted: current.response.flash = 'form submitted' elif form.errors: current.response.flash = 'form has errors' return dict(form = form) *models/db.py* db.define_table('test', Field('name'), Field('address', 'text'), Field('zip_code'), Field('city'), Field('country'), Field('lat', 'double'), Field('lon', 'double'), format = '%(name)s') *views/default/test.html* {{extend 'layout.html'}} {{=form}} <script language="javascript"> function getLocation() { navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(postLocation); } function postLocation(position) { jQuery.post( '{{=URL('set_location')}}',{lat: +position.coords.latitude, lon: +position.coords.longitude }); } function showError() { alert("Sorry, no position available."); } var geoOptions = { enableHighAccuracy: true, maximumAge : 0, timeout : 99999999999999 }; getLocation(); </script> thanks and best regards, stifan -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
