// Check if the browser supports Geolocation
if (navigator.geolocation) {
  // Get the current position
  navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
    // Retrieve latitude and longitude
    var latitude = position.coords.latitude;
    var longitude = position.coords.longitude;

    // Display the current location
    console.log("Latitude: " + latitude + ", Longitude: " + longitude);
  }, function(error) {
    // Handle errors (e.g. user denied location access)
    console.error("Error getting current location: " + error.message);
  });
} else {
  console.error("Geolocation is not supported by this browser.");

This is the hacky way that I am getting around this, 
at least it works in all current browsers (on Windows, I don't own a Mac):

if (navigator.geolocation) {
    var location_timeout = setTimeout("geolocFail()", 10000);

    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
        clearTimeout(location_timeout);

        var lat = position.coords.latitude;
        var lng = position.coords.longitude;

        geocodeLatLng(lat, lng);
    }, function(error) {
        clearTimeout(location_timeout);
        geolocFail();
    });
} else {
    // Fallback for no geolocation
    geolocFail();
}
