Geolocation Returning Null on iOS Device

just replace your code with the below one and comment the line where you call the loadgigs() method.

Titanium.Geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(e)
        {
                if (!e.success || e.error)
                {
                        currentLocation.text = 'error: ' + JSON.stringify(e.error);
                        Ti.API.info("Code translation: "+translateErrorCode(e.code));
                        alert('error ' + JSON.stringify(e.error));
                        return;
                }

                longitude = e.coords.longitude;
                latitude = e.coords.latitude;
                altitude = e.coords.altitude;
                heading = e.coords.heading;
                accuracy = e.coords.accuracy;
                speed = e.coords.speed;
                timestamp = e.coords.timestamp;
                altitudeAccuracy = e.coords.altitudeAccuracy;

        loadgigs();

        });

Just a quick question (as I can't try this out till a bit later).

Will adding loadgigs(); at the end of the Geo function have trouble referencing the function?

The loadgigs function gets declared directly below the geo function, is this OK?

Running it through jslint.com it says

'loadGigs' was used before it was defined.

yes this is ok. it does not give any error but if you want to remove that warning then you can put that function after declaration of variables

I've just changed the code and it's still returning blank values i'm afraid.

Location services are turned on, I've moved the loadGigs() into the geo function in your description above, and commented it out of the bottom of my script.

I just get results that are closest to 0,0 rather than my true location.

Any other thoughts?

       if (!e.success || e.error)
                {
                        currentLocation.text = 'error: ' + JSON.stringify(e.error);
                        Ti.API.info("Code translation: "+translateErrorCode(e.code));
                        alert('error ' + JSON.stringify(e.error));
                        return;
                }

                longitude = e.coords.longitude;
                latitude = e.coords.latitude;
                altitude = e.coords.altitude;
                heading = e.coords.heading;
                accuracy = e.coords.accuracy;
                speed = e.coords.speed;
                timestamp = e.coords.timestamp;
                altitudeAccuracy = e.coords.altitudeAccuracy;

        Ti.App.Properties.setString("longitude",longitude);
        Ti.App.Properties.setString("latitude",latitude);

        loadgigs();
    });

you are testing on iphone device..?

one thing you can do is that store your location in properties in app.js file and then get that location in this window and then call your function.
