Is there anyway that I can pass a callback function into an external
Javascript file from EWB.

I am trying to access a geoLocation using something like the following code:

===============
EWB Code
===============

// not sure what to put in here as a parameter
external function GetPosition(???????);

function StartGetPosition()
{
// pass in the return function that I want called
  GetPosition(GetPositionSuccess);
}

function GetPositionSuccess(p)
{
// this function is called from external GetPosition() javascript
}


===========================
External Javascript File
===========================

function GetPosition(geoSuccess)
{
var options =
{
enableHighAccuracy: true,
timeout: 5000,
maximumAge: 0
};

if(navigator.geolocation)
{
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(callbackSuccess,geoError,options);
}
}

Yes, but it has to be a method of an object, not a generic function, and you
have to prototype the external call appropriately in order to avoid compiler
errors.

Chris,

Some code might help.

type

  TGetPositionSuccess = function (<Params>): <Return> of object;

external function GetPosition(PositionSuccess: TGetPositionSuccess);

Of course, if the function doesn't return a result, then you can just use a
procedure instead.

If you have any other questions, please let me know.
