An awesome summer drink. Try it!!

Shake the following ingredients:

  • 2 parts Arnold Palmer
  • 1 part vodka

In case you didn’t know, an Arnold Palmer is equal parts Iced Tea and Lemonade. So, the drink would then be (shaken):

  • 1 part iced tea (sweet or unsweetened, your choice)
  • 1 part lemonade
  • 1 vodka

Enjoy!

HELP: Need to Pass JavaScript Vars in POST

The problem is, I am a bit of a moron.

I have a need to include geolocation info in the POST data of a form. I have put links to download the files as well as snippets of the code. I would appreciate any insight you could give. I am not a JavaScript guy…I am more of a html/php/sql guy.

Thanks in advance for your time and help!!

geo.js snippet

function getLocation(params)
{
try
{
clearOutput();

//Save timestamp to measure how long it takes to get geolocation info
startTime = new Date();

//First test to see that the browser supports the Geolocation API
if (navigator.geolocation !== null)
{
//Configure optional parameters:
var options;
if (params)
{
displayOutput("Retrieving location information using custom parameters: " + params + " ..." );
options = eval("options = " + params + ";");
}
else
{
options = { enableHighAccuracy : true, timeout : 60000, maximumAge : 0 };
displayOutput("Please stand by. Retrieving location information.");
}
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(LocationSuccess, geolocationError, options);
}
else
{
errorMessage("HTML5 geolocation is not supported.");
}
}
catch (e)
{
errorMessage("exception (getPosition): " + e);
}
}

function LocationSuccess(position)
{
try
{
displayOutput("<h3>You only had to wait " + (getDuration(startTime) / 1000) + " seconds! Stop complaining.<\/h3>");

var coordinates = position.coords;
var gpsTime = position.timestamp;

displayLocationInfo(gpsTime, coordinates);
}
catch (e)
{
errorMessage("exception (geolocationSuccess): " + e);
}
}

function displayLocationInfo(time, coordinates)
{
try
{
var lat = coordinates.latitude;
var lon = coordinates.longitude;
var acc = coordinates.accuracy;

var locationInfo = "<h3>Your current location is:</h3>";
locationInfo += "Latitude: " + coordinates.latitude + "<br/>";
locationInfo += "Longitude: " + coordinates.longitude + "<br/>";
locationInfo += "Accuracy: " + coordinates.accuracy + "<br/>";
