Hi Andrei: I am not sure it is a good idea to include: The user interface must include the URI of the document origin. Instead, i suggest that we use: The user interface must include the HOST of the document origin. For example, NOT this: www.example.com/foopy/geo.html BUT this: www.example.com For usability, I think this is required: 1) On small screens, displaying a full URI of the document origin often wraps or is too long to be easily displayed. 2) This is consistent with existing paradigms of trusting "HOST" over URIs. People "trust" etrade.com, not etrade.com/login/foopy/bah 3) "Remember Me" functionality, when using full URI, requires multiple prompts if the web application requests geo from different documents Doug Turner
