Which browser/OS did you observe this with? The screenshot seems to show Firefox, which doesn't use WebKit. Closing as invalid pending further clarification.

Please read the description and will all make sense.

Are you suggesting that the problem is that Twitter shows the rollover on Safari when it should not, or that Safari should support the Geolocation API? If the former, this is a bug in Twitter, though I can't reproduce it anyway. If the latter, this is expected - Geolocation is not fully implemented in Safari.

Because this is what is happening in Firefox?

(In reply to comment #7) > Because this is what is happening in Firefox? Firefox supports the Geolocation API. As Steve said, Safari doesn't. I think the best thing to do is to talk to them directly by filing a feature request at http://bugreport.apple.com/ and selecting 'Safari' from the Product list. Thanks, Andrei
