The store locator will be check from the pharmacy database, what I'm
looking for is the part before that. Let me give another example. The
customer wants to search something near his home, now the home address
is not store in our database. When he enters an address (zipcode 07020
and radius 10), he is basically looking for his home address which he
know is in 10 miles radius of 07020. And when he gives the street
name, the application 'suggests' addresses in that street. The user
chooses the nearest one. Now how do I make the application suggest the
addresses within 10 miles of 07020 (aroung the street that he has
enetered)...I hope I'm not confusing everyone, because I am... :)

again thnx for your replies.
