The code above invokes the function `load()`, which can take different arguments, but our example uses as an argument a specially prepared object with five properties: `test, yep, nope, complete`. The `load()` function will test the value of `Modernizr.geolocation` and if it's true, it'll load the scripts listed in the `yep` property. Otherwise it'll load the code listed in the `nope` array. The code in the get-native-geo-data.js gets the user's location the same way as it was done earlier in the section Integrating with Google Maps.

Now let's consider the "nope" case. The code of the get-geo-data-by-ip.js has to offer an alternative way of getting the location for the browsers that don't support HTML5 Geolocation API. We found the GeoIP JavaScript API offered by http://www.maxmind.com/[MaxMind, Inc.]. Their service returns country, region, city, latitude and longitude, which can serve as a good illustration of how a workaround of a non-supported feature can be implemented. The code in get-geo-data-by-ip.js is very simple for now.
