Hello,
I was wondering to know if there is any way to display my current geo-location in IE-8. As IE-8 does not support HTML5, I am finding it difficult to show my current location.

Just want to have some different method than HTML5 (if any) to work current location in IE-8

Your support and suggestion is very precious, thankyou in advance.

Regards
Rajan Maharjan

There are several services out there that will geolocate an IP address, but they will not be 100% reliable. You might try one of them.
