使用PHP将当前地理位置加载到数据库中

I'm currently trying to make an application that uploads the users current location into my mysql database. I know how to use google maps in javascript. I know enough to make php work.

What I don't know is how can I take my current location and continually loop it through my database. I was hoping to update the users location every 2 minutes without Post & Get variables. If anybody has any information, any documentation or anything that would be great. I tried looking it up.

I found people saying to use AJAX but I'm not sure how that would loop through my current location without some kind of interaction.

I also saw the other talking about turning it into JSON data.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

I'll answer with simplified concept code for you to get the general idea.

First you need to add the location polling functionality in your web application with Javascript:

// We only start location update process if browser supports it
if ("geolocation" in navigator) 
{
    request_location();
} 

// Requesting location from user
function request_location()
{
    // Will repeat the process in two minutes
    setTimeout(request_location, 1000*60*2);

    // Get location info from browser and pass it to updating function
    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(update_location);
}

// Sending location to server via POST request
function update_location(position)
{
    // For simplicity of example we'll 
    // send POST AJAX request with jQuery
    $.post("/update-location.php",
    {
        latitude : position.coords.latitude,
        longtitude : position.coords.longitude
    },
    function(){
        // Position sent, may update the map
    });
}

Then on the server side you must receive the coordinates from the above AJAX request:

<?php 

    $latitude = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'latitude', FILTER_VALIDATE_FLOAT);
    $longtitude = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'longtitude', FILTER_VALIDATE_FLOAT);

    if($latitude && $longtitude)
    {
        // @TODO: Update database with this data.
    }
