That thread is from 2005 before Google added geocoding to the API. See the documentation for the google geocoder: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/services.html#Geocoding Mike Williams' Tutorial has examples of using it: http://econym.org.uk/gmap/ although since the businesses don't move it would probably make more sense to use the http geocoding service and geocode the addresses offline then store the coordinates in your database. -- Larry --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
