Right now i’m building this feature for webkit and I was wondering the best way to determine if the coors are coming from gps or some wifi/skyhooking business. Should I just test the user agent?
Thanks

It depends why you need to know, but you might want to use
coords.accuracy. Presumably GPS coords will have a better accuracy than wifi etc. Check out Diver Into HTML5 for a good discussion of geolocation.
