+PositionError
+========
+
+A `PositionError` object is passed to the `geolocationError` callback when an error occurs.
+
+Properties
+----------
+
+- __code__: One of the predefined error codes listed below.
+- __message__: Error message describing the details of the error encountered.
+
+Constants
+---------
+
+- `PositionError.PERMISSION_DENIED`
+- `PositionError.POSITION_UNAVAILABLE`
+- `PositionError.TIMEOUT`
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The `PositionError` object is passed to the `geolocationError`
+callback function when an error occurs with geolocation.
+
+### `PositionError.PERMISSION_DENIED`
+
+Returned when the user does not allow your application to retrieve
+position information. This is dependent on the platform.
+
+### `PositionError.POSITION_UNAVAILABLE`
+
+Returned when the device is unable to retrieve a position. In general
+this means the device has no network connectivity and/or cannot get a
+satellite fix.
+
+### `PositionError.TIMEOUT`
+
+Returned when the device is unable to retrieve a position within the
+time specified in the `geolocationOptions`' `timeout` property. When
+used with `geolocation.watchPosition`, this error could be passed to
+the `geolocationError` callback every `timeout` milliseconds.

+
+Geolocation
+===========
+
+> The `geolocation` object provides access to location data based on the device's GPS sensor or inferred from network signals.
+
+`Geolocation` provides information about the device's location, such as
+latitude and longitude. Common sources of location information include
+Global Positioning System (GPS) and location inferred from network
+signals such as IP address, RFID, WiFi and Bluetooth MAC addresses,
+and GSM/CDMA cell IDs. There is no guarantee that the API returns the
+device's actual location.
+
+This API is based on the
+[W3C Geolocation API Specification](http://dev.w3.org/geo/api/spec-source.html),
+and only executes on devices that don't already provide an implementation.
+
+**Important privacy note:** Collection and use of geolocation data raises important privacy issues.  Your app's privacy policy should discuss how the app uses geolocation data, whether it is shared with any other parties, and the level of precision of the data (for example, coarse, fine, ZIP code level, etc.).  Geolocation data is generally considered sensitive because it can reveal a person's whereabouts and, if stored, the history of his or her travels.  Therefore, in addition to your app's privacy policy, you should strongly consider providing a just-in-time notice prior to your app accessing geolocation data (if the device operating system doesn't do so already).  That notice should provide the same information noted above, as well as obtaining the user's permission (e.g., by presenting choices for "OK" and "No Thanks").  For more information, please see the Privacy Guide.

+geolocation.watchPosition
+=========================
+
+Watches for changes to the device's current position.
+
+    var watchId = navigator.geolocation.watchPosition(geolocationSuccess,
+                                                      [geolocationError],
+                                                      [geolocationOptions]);
+
+Parameters
+----------
+
+- __geolocationSuccess__: The callback that is passed the current position.
+- __geolocationError__: (Optional) The callback that executes if an error occurs.
+- __geolocationOptions__: (Optional) The geolocation options.
+
+Returns
+-------
+
+- __String__: returns a watch id that references the watch position interval. The watch id should be used with `geolocation.clearWatch` to stop watching for changes in position.
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+`geolocation.watchPosition` is an asynchronous function. It returns
+the device's current position when a change in position is detected.
+When the device retrieves a new location, the `geolocationSuccess`
+callback executes with a `Position` object as the parameter.  If
+there is an error, the `geolocationError` callback executes with a
+`PositionError` object as the parameter.

+geolocationOptions
+==================
+
+Optional parameters to customize the retrieval of the geolocation
+`Position`.
+
+    { maximumAge: 3000, timeout: 5000, enableHighAccuracy: true };
+
+Options
+-------
+
+- __enableHighAccuracy__: Provides a hint that the application needs the best possible results. By default, the device attempts to retrieve a `Position` using network-based methods. Setting this property to `true` tells the framework to use more accurate methods, such as satellite positioning. _(Boolean)_
+- __timeout__: The maximum length of time (milliseconds) that is allowed to pass from the call to `geolocation.getCurrentPosition` or `geolocation.watchPosition` until the corresponding `geolocationSuccess` callback executes. If the `geolocationSuccess` callback is not invoked within this time, the `geolocationError` callback is passed a `PositionError.TIMEOUT` error code. (Note that when used in conjunction with `geolocation.watchPosition`, the `geolocationError` callback could be called on an interval every `timeout` milliseconds!) _(Number)_
+- __maximumAge__: Accept a cached position whose age is no greater than the specified time in milliseconds. _(Number)_
+
+Android Quirks
+--------------
+
+Android 2.x emulators do not return a geolocation result unless the `enableHighAccuracy` option is set to `true`.

+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Returns the formatted date `String` via a `value` property accessible
+from the object passed as a parameter to the `successCallback`.
+
+The inbound `date` parameter should be of type `Date`.
+
+If there is an error formatting the date, then the `errorCallback`
+executes with a `GlobalizationError` object as a parameter. The
+error's expected code is `GlobalizationError.FORMATTING\_ERROR`.
+
+The `options` parameter is optional, and its default values are:
+
+    {formatLength:'short', selector:'date and time'}
+
+The `options.formatLength` can be `short`, `medium`, `long`, or `full`.

+globalization.getCurrencyPattern
+===========
+
+Returns a pattern string to format and parse currency values according
+to the client's user preferences and ISO 4217 currency code.
+
+     navigator.globalization.getCurrencyPattern(currencyCode, successCallback, errorCallback);
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Returns the pattern to the `successCallback` with a `properties` object
+as a parameter. That object should contain the following properties:
+
+- __pattern__: The currency pattern to format and parse currency values.  The patterns follow Unicode Technical Standard #35. <http://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-4.html>. _(String)_
+- __code__: The ISO 4217 currency code for the pattern. _(String)_
+- __fraction__: The number of fractional digits to use when parsing and formatting currency. _(Number)_
+- __rounding__: The rounding increment to use when parsing and formatting. _(Number)_
+- __decimal__: The decimal symbol to use for parsing and formatting. _(String)_
+- __grouping__: The grouping symbol to use for parsing and formatting. _(String)_
+
+The inbound `currencyCode` parameter should be a `String` of one of
+the ISO 4217 currency codes, for example 'USD'.
+
+If there is an error obtaining the pattern, then the `errorCallback`
+executes with a `GlobalizationError` object as a parameter. The
+error's expected code is `GlobalizationError.FORMATTING\_ERROR`.
+
+Supported Platforms
+-------------------
+
+- Android
+- BlackBerry WebWorks (OS 5.0 and higher)
+- iOS
+
+Quick Example
+-------------
+
+When the browser is set to the `en\_US` locale and the selected
+currency is United States Dollars, this example displays a popup
+dialog with text similar to the results that follow:
+
+    navigator.globalization.getCurrencyPattern(
+        'USD',
+        function (pattern) {
+            alert('pattern: '  + pattern.pattern  + '\n' +

+                  'grouping: ' + pattern.grouping);
+        },
+        function () { alert('Error getting pattern\n'); }
+    );
+
+Expected result:
+
+    pattern: $#,##0.##;($#,##0.##)
+    code: USD

+globalization.getDateNames
+===========
+
+Returns an array of the names of the months or days of the week,
+depending on the client's user preferences and calendar.
+
+    navigator.globalization.getDateNames(successCallback, errorCallback, options);
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Returns the array of names to the `successCallback` with a
+`properties` object as a parameter. That object contains a `value`
+property with an `Array` of `String` values. The array features names
+starting from either the first month in the year or the first day of
+the week, depending on the option selected.
+
+If there is an error obtaining the names, then the `errorCallback`
+executes with a `GlobalizationError` object as a parameter. The
+error's expected code is `GlobalizationError.UNKNOWN\_ERROR`.
+
+The `options` parameter is optional, and its default values are:
+
+    {type:'wide', item:'months'}
+
+The value of `options.type` can be `narrow` or `wide`.
+
+The value of `options.item` can be `months` or `days`.
+
+Supported Platforms
+-------------------
+
+- Android
+- BlackBerry WebWorks (OS 5.0 and higher)
+- iOS
+- Windows Phone 8
+
+Quick Example
+-------------
+
+When the browser is set to the `en\_US` locale, this example displays
+a series of twelve popup dialogs, one per month, with text similar to
+`month: January`:
+
+    navigator.globalization.getDateNames(
+        function (names) {
+            for (var i = 0; i < names.value.length; i++) {
+                alert('month: ' + names.value[i] + '\n');
+            }

+globalization.getDatePattern
+===========
+
+Returns a pattern string to format and parse dates according to the
+client's user preferences.
+
+    navigator.globalization.getDatePattern(successCallback, errorCallback, options);
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Returns the pattern to the `successCallback`. The object passed in as
+a parameter contains the following properties:
+
+- __pattern__: The date and time pattern to format and parse dates.  The patterns follow Unicode Technical Standard #35. <http://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-4.html>. _(String)_
+- __timezone__: The abbreviated name of the time zone on the client. _(String)_
+- __utc\_offset__: The current difference in seconds between the client's time zone and coordinated universal time. _(Number)_
+- __dst\_offset__: The current daylight saving time offset in seconds between the client's non-daylight saving's time zone and the client's daylight saving's time zone. _(Number)_
+
+If there is an error obtaining the pattern, the `errorCallback`
+executes with a `GlobalizationError` object as a parameter. The
+error's expected code is `GlobalizationError.PATTERN\_ERROR`.
+
+The `options` parameter is optional, and defaults to the following values:
+
+    {formatLength:'short', selector:'date and time'}
+
+The `options.formatLength` can be `short`, `medium`, `long`, or
+`full`.  The `options.selector` can be `date`, `time` or `date and
+time`.
+
+Supported Platforms
+-------------------
+
+- Android
+- BlackBerry WebWorks (OS 5.0 and higher)
+- iOS
+- Windows Phone 8
+
+Quick Example
+-------------
+
+When the browser is set to the `en\_US` locale, this example displays
+a popup dialog with text such as `pattern: M/d/yyyy h:mm a`:
+
+    function checkDatePattern() {
+        navigator.globalization.getDatePattern(
+            function (date) { alert('pattern: ' + date.pattern + '\n'); },

+globalization.getPreferredLanguage
+===========
+
+Get the string identifier for the client's current language.
+
+    navigator.globalization.getPreferredLanguage(successCallback, errorCallback);
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Returns the language identifier string to the `successCallback` with a
+`properties` object as a parameter. That object should have a `value`
+property with a `String` value.
