Description
The PositionError object is passed to the [geolocationError](../parameters/geolocationError.html)
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](../parameters/geolocation.options.html)' timeout property. When
used with [geolocation.watchPosition](../geolocation.watchPosition.html), this error could be passed to
the [geolocationError](../parameters/geolocationError.html) callback every timeout milliseconds.
