we are using google map api for calculating driving distance between
two address but we are facing certain problems in getting the driving
distance and address.
1-the distance returned by api is not match with the result shown by
the live google map.
2-the javascript function that uses google map api return error in
address as invalid address error but that address work fine in live
google map.
we are using the following javascript function for calculating
driving distance
