javascript - Google Map - Current location

Question

I would like to get the address string of the current user location. Is that possible?

Many thanks. Regards

Answer 1

the user's location is available in google.loader.ClientLocation (this will contain a guess based on the client IP if the IP is known)

google.loader.ClientLocation

When an application makes use of the AJAX API loader, the loader attempts to geo locate the client based on its IP address. If this process succeeds, the client's location, scoped to the metro level, is made available in the google.loader.ClientLocation property. If the process fails to find a match, this property is set to null.
