Your code looks rather like Java. To use the API for road distances requires GDirections, which must be Javascript and run in a browser -- there is no server-side or HTTP implementation. There may be other resources you can use server-side; have a look in the Pages section in the Group for lists. You could get a more accurate straight-line distance by using the haversine formula rather than Pythagoras [Google for "haversine formula"] Andrew --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
