GeoLocation is not showing in Science.nasa.gov/iSat for Alex-developer in UK #135

I've seen this myself but cannot reproduce now.

Could be that my Mac filesystem is NOT case sensitive.

Did a bit of debugging and the geolocation command is timing out in Firefox and Chrome but works fine in Internet Explorer.

It also doesn't work in my satellite tracking program so I don't think its the iSat code, I have had a look over the code and it appears fine to me

Tested using the following page https://developer.mozilla.org/de/docs/Using_geolocation

What might be a good idea is to implement the error callback on the gelocation and put in some default location? i.e.

    if ('geolocation' in navigator) {
        navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showGeo, function(error) {
            // Add some default location         
        },{timeout:5000});
    }
