This object is a container for configuration attributes passed to the Geolocation API. It
is one of the parameters of either the getCurrentPosition or watchPosition methods.
| Name | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|
| enableHighAccuracy | Denotes that the best possible results are expected. Setting it to "true" may result in slower response times and/or increased power consumption. By default this parameter is set to "false". | boolean |
| timeout | Denotes the maximum length of time (in milliseconds) allowed to pass from the call of
the getCurrentPosition or watchPosition methods until a
successCallback is invoked. If it is impossible to acquire the position
before the timeout elapses, and no other errors occur, an errorCallback is
invoked to pass a PositionError object, whose code attribute
is set to TIMEOUT. By default it is set to infinity. |
long |
| maximumAge | Denotes that the application accepts a cached position, whose age is no greater than
the specified time (in milliseconds). Setting this parameter to 0 means that the getCurrentPosition or watchPosition methods invoke the appropriate
callback to return a new position object immediately. Setting this parameter to infinity
means that a cached position is returned, regardless of its age. By default it is set to
0. |
