Can someone please help me get Geolocation to work. I am using the mobile templates in dreamweaver. When I try the same code in a regular html page it works but when I try using the mobile templates it does not work. In a regular html I get prompted for permission to locate but i can't even get that far on my mobile app. Please see code below. Thanks.
