Get user Geolocation from web browser asp.net

i have this code in asp.net web form

<script>
var x = document.getElementById("demo");

   function getLocation() {
   if (navigator.geolocation) {
    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition);
    } else { 
      x.innerHTML = "Geolocation is not supported by this browser.";
   }
 }

     function showPosition(position) {
      x.innerHTML = "Latitude: " + position.coords.latitude + 
     "<br>Longitude: " + position.coords.longitude; 
  }
  </script>


<p>Click the button to get your coordinates.</p>

<asp:Button ID="Button1" OnClientClick="getLocation()" runat="server" Text="Try It" />

<p id="demo"></p>

i want to display the current of the gps position, when the user clicks on the button.

This code does not work as it should.

Any help

Your script doesn't recognize "demo" element because it is ran before the page loads completely. Simply put your script tag after <p id="demo"></p>.

Plus, disable Postback on the button by adding the following:

<asp:Button ID="Button1" OnClientClick="getLocation();return false;" runat="server" Text="Try It" />
