switch case redirect by geolocation latitude and longitude

Question

I want to redirect by geolocation and i try with this javascript function and it works fine:

 function showPosition(pos)
  {

   if (pos.coords.latitude >= 10.4696404 && pos.coords.longitude <= -66.8037185)
        {
            window.location = 'http://www.website.com/page1.html';
        }
        else{
            window.location = 'http://www.website.com/page2.html';
        }
  }

but when i try to use a switch case do not work, what is wrong here?

function showPosition(pos)
      {
        var lat = position.coords.latitude;
        var lon = position.coords.longitude;
        switch(lat + "|" + lon){
            case lat >="10.4696404"|lon <="-66.8037185"://Caracas
                window.location = 'http://www.website.com/page1.html';
            break;
            case lat >="10.0618663"|lon <="-69.3628479"://BARQUISIMETO
                window.location = 'http://www.website.com/page2.html';
            break;
            case lat >="10.6335502"|lon <="-71.6769433": //MARACAIBO
                window.location = 'http://www.website.com/page3.html';
            break;
            default
            window.location = 'http://www.website.com/';
        }
      }

Could it be that you're comparing a with a number in the first example and a string in the second? Are lat and lon strings or numbers? — vanchagreen, Feb 09 '15 at 20:08
Hi lat and lot are the values of geolocation position its something like lat=10.4696404 and lon=-66.8037185 — Virgilio Calderon, Feb 10 '15 at 11:54

Try adding : after default:

...
  default:
    window.location = 'http://www.website.com/';
...

UPDATE:

Check the javascript switch sintax, maybe this question could help you: javascript: using a condition in switch case
