Hi I have some examples created in bing maps such as in google maps, and in both of them I have some pushpins saved with them coordinates, but I am inserting the pushpisn by code. So my question is how can I give the coordinates he marks the pushpin but also gives me the name of the country and the name of the city?

"anyone can help me?"... perhaps you meant to ask some sort of a technical question related to some code that you wrote and are having a difficult time with?

You can use HTML5 API for location based services. But be aware that it will prompt the user whether he/she wants to share the location or not.

Check out the demo on the following site.
