In the previous article "
Display Map of current location", we load current map of current using window.navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition() when page loaded. That means the map show the location when page load only, will not update when the user(or device) moved. We are going to replace it with window.navigator.geolocation.watchPosition() to get repeated position updates, to track the updated location.
