Possible to Create a button to record the GPS location?

Question

Is there any way to have a button, that when pushed takes the GPS location of the mobile device, and records it into a field? Just got that request, and I dont even know where to start.

Kirk Trachys Magic Buttons has an example of this, but the example doesnt work. Anyone smart enough to read his code page and decode the error?

Thanks all! Looks like the app in the video no longer exists, and the code has been slightly modified and added into magic buttons. The code seems to no longer work, so I will fuss with it, and also I signed up for office hours on Monday and will ask Sam if he can find the bug!------------------------------Mike Tamoush------------------------------
