I keep getting 'geolocation is not supported by this browser' js prompts every time the page loads, which is _extremely_ annoying.

Was that on the homepage? What browser are you using?

It's popping up on all of the pages. I'm using firefox 16.0.2 http://i.imgur.com/xODBn.jpg

Weird. My Firefox 16.0.1 has no issues. I had to allow location access though. I am looking in to it.

Oops, it looks like I turned it off in firefox at some point and probably forgot the geolocation option even existed after that, so I guess that clears that up.

The prompt is really too obstructive though.

Okay, that's good to know. Thanks for checking it out. I am looking for a solution to make it less annoying.
