\*\*I am on the beta version 6.0.5. I need to capture the User location while he submits a record. \*\*  
**In other platform I had used following startup script where “lat” and “longi” are latitude and longitude fields in my database.**

$(document).ready(function(){  
$("#x\_lat").hide() ;  
$("#x\_longi").hide() ;  
});

function success(position) {  
var lat = position.coords.latitude;  
var longt = position.coords.longitude;  
$("#x\_lat").val(lat);  
$("#x\_longi").val(longt);  
};

function error() {  
$("#x\_lat").val("");  
$("#x\_longi").val("");  
};  
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(success, error);

@superduperglobal your code is correct if you are trying to add this in a vue rad project or noderad or whichever! we dont have jquery selectors there! so you will replace the  
**$("#x\_lat").val(lat);** codes with the v-modelvalues of the app like this  
**this.vmodel = long** where **vmodel** is the values of the vmodel of field you want
