title: Reverse geocoding in intel XDK
body: <p>Hi I am using the following code to display the user current position on the map: </p>
  
  <pre><code>function drawMap() {
      var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(currentLatitude, currentLongitude);
      myLatLng = latlng;
      var mapOptions = {
          center: latlng,
          mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
          zoomControl: true,
          zoomControlOptions: {
              style: google.maps.ZoomControlStyle.SMALL,
              position: google.maps.ControlPosition.LEFT_TOP
          },
      };
      if (boolTripTrack === true) {
          _map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), mapOptions);
      }
  }
  
  
  var suc = function(p) {
          console.log("geolocation success", 4);
          //Draws the map initially
          if (_map === null) {
              currentLatitude = p.coords.latitude;
              currentLongitude = p.coords.longitude;
              drawMap();
              //reverseGeocode(currentLatitude, currentLongitude);
          } else {
              myLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(p.coords.latitude, p.coords.longitude);
          }
          //Creates a new google maps marker object for using with the pins
          if ((myLatLng.toString().localeCompare(oldLatLng.toString())) !== 0) {
              //Create a new map marker
              var Marker = new google.maps.Marker({
                  position: myLatLng,
                  map: _map
              });
              if (_llbounds === null) {
                  //Create the rectangle in geographical coordinates
                  _llbounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds(new google.maps.LatLng(p.coords.latitude, p.coords.longitude)); //original
              } else {
                  //Extends geographical coordinates rectangle to cover current position
                  _llbounds.extend(myLatLng);
              }
              //Sets the viewport to contain the given bounds &amp; triggers the "zoom_changed" event
              _map.fitBounds(_llbounds);
          }
          oldLatLng = myLatLng;
      };
  var fail = function() {
          console.log("Geolocation failed. \nPlease enable GPS in Settings.", 1);
      };
  var getLocation = function() {
          console.log("in getLocation", 4);
      };

  <p>This works fine but I need to perform reverse geocoding when a button is pressed so that the address is displayed. The function is am using is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>function reversegeocode(){
    var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(?, ?);
    var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
    geocoder.geocode({'latLng': latlng}, function(results, status) {
      if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
        if (results[1]) {
                  alert(results[1].formatted_address);
        } else {
          alert('No results found');
        }
      } else {
        alert('Geocoder failed due to: ' + status);
      }
    });
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am unsure of how to pass in the current latitude and longitude from the previous function. Can anyone help me with this??</p>
  
  <p>Thank you..</p>
