Does not run on reload #36

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run the simple example code in Firefox 3.6
2. After the coordinates are retrieved, hit refresh.
3. The code fails to run; neither success nor fail callbacks are executed.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected success_callback or error_callback to execute.  Instead, nothing 
happens.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Firefox 3.6 on Windows 7.  

Please provide any additional information below.
I realize this may not be a defect, and that the code may operate differently 
on a mobile device than a desktop computer.  I'm wondering if anyone can set me 
straight on this.  Running the example in Safari yields the same result.

Watch as I answer my own problem.

I had to load the library with an increasing value to prevent caching, eg.

<script src="js/geo.js?id=5" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>

Where 5 is an increasing value.

But while that works in Firefox, it doesn't work at all in Safari unless you 
restart your browser.  That is to say in Safari, it runs only once.
