<script>
function getmylocation(lat, lng) {
            var currAddress, addtress= [];
            var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
            var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng);
            if (geocoder) {
                geocoder.geocode({'latLng': latlng}, function (results, status) {
                    if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
                        if (results[0]) {
                            currAddress = results[0].formatted_address;
                            addtress.push(currAddress );
                        } else {
                            alert('No results found');
                        }
                    } else {
                        alert('Geocoder failed due to: ' + status);
                    }
                });
            }
