geolocal.js is a simple Javascript library to provide very interesting Geo-Location features (Map & Filter). Each time, when users visit a web site (just like you are doing right now), their browsers will pass their current IP (Internet Protocol) addresses to to the visiting web server. Most of time, the incoming IP address can be translated to the Geo-Location information (country, region, city, latitude, longitude, ...). The Geo-Location information of web site visitors can be very useful statistics data for most of web site administrators, and we will address more about the usages of the Geo-Location information in the next Geo-Location Filter sections.

In this section, we are only focusing on the Geo-Location Map feature which provides the geographic information and map of a current web site visitor. Please refer to the following simple demonstration and examples (simple1.html & simple2.html).

Notes:

The detailed GeoLocal information can be displayed by clicking the marker on the map.
By default, geolocal.js will detect the web site visitor's IP address automatically, and use it to retrieve the geographic information. However, for the web site testing purposes, the web site administrators can modify the first line code of geolocal.js file to be var $ip="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"; to simulate a web site visitor from the different country, region, and city.
