Answer 1

The sole purpose of AJAX is to fetch and send data from a server without reloading the page.

You don't need any data from the server. You need data from the BROWSER--namely--geolocation coordinates, so AJAX and php have no bearing on what you need to do here. This can be done in pure HTML.

On the other hand, if you want to do something like save the coordinates to a database or use IP address as a fallback when the navigator doesn't support geolocation, that's when you could use the help of a server and AJAX would come into play.

Simply replace your ajax function with getLocation().
