User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:30.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/30.0 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20140224030203 Steps to reproduce: Create following link on a website/webapp: <a href="geo:37.786971,-122.399677">Wikimedia Headquarters</a>. Actual results: Firefox OS doesn't open <a href="geo:37.786971,-122.399677">Wikimedia Headquarters</a> when this URI is on a website/webapp. Expected results: Firefox OS should recognize 'Geo' URI and open default mapping service on device. For example: If a 'Geo' URI is included on website/webapp, like this <a href="geo:37.786971,-122.399677">Wikimedia Headquarters</a> clicking on that url should open default mapping service and focus on latitude 37.786971 and longitude -122.399677. More information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo_URI
Also, I would like to add that Firefox OS should also recognize 'Geo' URI in vcards and sms/mms messages on the device and open default mapping service.
