     function initGeolocation()
     {
        if( navigator.geolocation )
        {
           // Call getCurrentPosition with success and failure callbacks
           navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition( success, fail );
        }

           alert("Sorry, your browser does not support geolocation services.");
        }
     }

     function success(position)
     {

         document.getElementById('long').value = position.coords.longitude;
         document.getElementById('lat').value = position.coords.latitude
     }

     function fail()
     {
        // Could not obtain location
     }

You can try this code:-

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<p>Click the button to get your coordinates.</p>

<button onclick="getLocation()">Try It</button>

<p id="demo"></p>

<script>
var x = document.getElementById("demo");

function getLocation() {
    if (navigator.geolocation) {
        navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition);
    } else { 
        x.innerHTML = "Geolocation is not supported by this browser.";
    }
}

function showPosition(position) {
    x.innerHTML = "Latitude: " + position.coords.latitude + 
    "<br>Longitude: " + position.coords.longitude;
}
</script>

</body>
</html>

I am using this code for finding current location latitude and longitude.

$(document).ready(function() {
    if (navigator.geolocation)
    {
        navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(successFunction, errorFunction);
    }
    else 
    {
        alert('It seems like Geolocation, which is required for this page, is not enabled in your browser.');
    }       
});

function successFunction(position) 
{
    var lat = position.coords.latitude;
    var long = position.coords.longitude;
    alert('Your latitude is :'+lat+' and longitude is '+long);
}

function errorFunction(position) 
{
    alert('Error!');
}

It's working fine in Chrome but not in Mozilla. There is no alert error message either.
