Apple Bringing Geolocation to Mobile Safari
n fact, the new version of Safari has been quietly updated to tap into the iPhone’s geolocation abilities so that it can deliver location information should a web site request it. Weintraub tested the new feature using a web page designed by Doug Turner to test Mozilla’s upcoming geolocation API (which is built into the latest beta builds of Firefox, by the way). Visiting the site brings up the familiar location services permission request dialog box that opens when using other third-party apps and Google Maps.
