I'm building a map application and have noticed that although IE9 supports the geolocation api it incorrectly calculates the latitude/longitude.
Other users have also noticed this http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-IE/ieitprocurrentver/thread/aea4db4e-0720-44fe-a9b8-09917e345080, but no amount of googling brings up any results from developer blogs/more technical readers... which I find just bizarre, is no one testing their geolocation code in IE9!?
Here is my example code: https://gist.github.com/1710256
Does anyone here know why this would be because it makes feature detecting the geolocation api damn near impossible. Also, I noticed that the fallback (as provided in Paul Irish's polyfill) also has the same issues as found in IE9's native implementation?
Has anyone else experienced this issue with geolocation on IE9?
Any help/advice appreciated.
