MVC 5- How to save values from JavaScript to SQL Database?

I want to know what code do I need to save the data that JavaScript displays to SQL Database
I'm inside the Create View of my Controller.
This is my code on the Create view that display my Javascript:
<div>
<script>
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition, showError);
}
else { $("#message").html("Geolocation is not supported by this
browser."); }
function showPosition(position) {
var latitude = position.coords.latitude;
var longitude = position.coords.longitude;
var latlon = "Latitude: " + latitude + "<br/>" + "Longitude: " +
longitude;
$("#message").html(latlon);
}
</script>
//This Display Latitude and Longitude
<p id="message"></p>
</div>
This code is Inside the Create.CSHTML file above its default code. It will show my current Latitude and Longitude values. I need to make it save those values in SQL

JSON get geolocation not returning value in HTML

I am trying to get geo coordinates and then return them into my HTML. This is the code I have so far, but it is not returning the coordinates onto my page:
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
$("#cityname").html("latitude: " + position.coords.latitude + "<br>longitude: " + position.coords.longitude);
});
}
I have an id in my html named 'cityname'. I would also like to convert the coordinates into a city name.

Your code seems to work just fine:

Perhaps your div isn't available in the DOM when this code runs?
Try wrapping it as such:
$(document).ready(function() {
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
$("#cityname").html("latitude: " + position.coords.latitude + "<br>longitude: " + position.coords.longitude);
});
}
});
As for getting the city name, this part of your question is already answered: Get city name using geolocation

GeoLocation fetching wrong latitude longitude

I am trying to fetch the current location using the geolocation . A month before it was giving correct location but not am getting different location . I have used the same code as below.
function getLocation() {
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition);
} else {
x.innerHTML = "Geolocation is not supported by this browser.";
}
}
function showPosition(position) {
/*x.innerHTML = "Latitude: " + position.coords.latitude +
"<br>Longitude: " + position.coords.longitude;
*/ var query = "?latitude="+position.coords.latitude+"&longitude="+position.coords.longitude;
var stateObj = { query: query };
history.pushState(stateObj, "query added", query);
var flag = true;
/*var req = (window.XMLHttpRequest)?new XMLHttpRequest():new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
req.onreadystatechange=function(){if((r.readyState==4)&&(r.status==200)){ console.log('location was sended to server'); }};
req.open("GET","?latitude="+position.coords.latitude+"&longitude="+position.coords.longitude,true);
req.send(null);
*/
}
Another problem is its fetching the latlong based on isp not on IP. So if i use this code using mobile internet ! It gives latlong of another state. Is there any way to make this work again?

I can't get location on chrome - javascript

I'm coding a web app which is using by maps. I want to find visitor's location. It is working on firefox but not working on chrome. Chrome says "it is blocked that track your location by this page." How can i fix it for chrome?
function onPositionUpdate(position)
{
var lat = position.coords.latitude;
var lng = position.coords.longitude;
alert("Current position: " + lat + " " + lng);
}
if(navigator.geolocation)
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(onPositionUpdate);
else
alert("navigator.geolocation is not available");
and now I try this:
function get_location() {
if (geo_position_js.init()) {
geo_position_js.getCurrentPosition(show_map, handle_error);
}
}
function show_map(position) {
var latitude = position.coords.latitude;
var longitude = position.coords.longitude;
alert("lat:" + latitude + " long:" + longitude);
}
function handle_error(err) {
alert(err.code);
if (err.code == 1) {
// user said no!
}
}
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(show_map, handle_error);
} else {
error('not supported');
}
When I run this with chrome I get "javascript alert 1" error. It is working on firefox.
Edit: I solve this problem by using html5 geolocation http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_geolocation.asp

get location when pages loads

I am Building a website useing HTML, CSS and Java script. I am wanting to get the location of the user when page loads. so they do not need to press a button. I was hoping some one can help.
!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<p id="demo">Click the button to get your coordinates:</p>
<button onclick="getLocation()">Try It</button>
<script>
var x=document.getElementById("demo");
function getLocation(){
if (navigator.geolocation){
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition);
}
else{
x.innerHTML="Geolocation is not supported by this browser.";}
}
function showPosition(position){
x.innerHTML="Latitude: " + position.coords.latitude +
"<br>Longitude: " + position.coords.longitude;
}
</script>
</body>
</html>

Simply call the getLocation()
<script>
var x=document.getElementById("demo");
function getLocation()
{
if (navigator.geolocation)
{
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition);
}
else{x.innerHTML="Geolocation is not supported by this browser.";}
}
function showPosition(position)
{
x.innerHTML="Latitude: " + position.coords.latitude +
"<br>Longitude: " + position.coords.longitude;
}
getLocation()
</script>
​Fiddle : https://jsfiddle.net/ES4TF/

<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
var x=document.getElementById("demo");
function getLocation()
{
if (navigator.geolocation)
{
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition);
}
else{x.innerHTML="Geolocation is not supported by this browser.";}
}
function showPosition(position)
{
x.innerHTML="Latitude: " + position.coords.latitude +
"<br>Longitude: " + position.coords.longitude;
}
getLocation()
</script>

This is an update to the answer above for anyone wanting to do this in react without adding another script. Here is the code in ES2015 format for use with React etc, without needing to use any of the HTML stuff above. Just import the function.
Special thanks to the first post as mine is based off it .
const showPosition = position =>{
let loc = `Latitude:${position.coords.latitude} logitude:
${position.coords.longitude}`
console.log(loc)
return loc
}
const getLocation = () => {
if (navigator.geolocation) {
return navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition);
}
return false
}
then Just Import the function and Use It
If you want to get the state and zip you can use the google API. Here is the code to get geolocation and the sends to google and then gives you the state, address results. You will need to activate the google geolocation API.
//Docs - https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/intro#ReverseGeocoding
const getData = async (url) => {
let res = await fetch(url)
let json = await res.json()
console.log(json);
return json
}
const showPosition = async position =>{
let loc = `Latitude:${position.coords.latitude} logitude: ${position.coords.longitude}`
let url = `https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=${position.coords.latitude},${position.coords.longitude}&key={GOOGLE_API_key}`
console.log(loc)
let address = await getData(url)
console.log(`results`,address)
return address
}
const getLocation = async () => {
if (navigator.geolocation) {
return navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition);
}
return false
}
