Hi everyone,

I am new to php and mysql and really need a distance calculator between nodes.

The idea is as follows: a search with a dropdown option ( Builders > Bricklayers > Plumbers > Carpenters etc ) and a search box which a postcode has to be inserted.....

on submitting I would like a list of the chosen trade which is nearest to the user..

I have found an interesting website which some of you may be able to do something with PHP Zip Code Range and Distance Calculation.

I have asked the guys on this site if thay can help as I really need to use this search function on my site....

Thanks

Robert
