In normal circumstances it's typically better to geocode the user's input on the first page and pass the lat/lng coordinates. One significant advantage being that it's much easier to handle geocode failures while you're still on that page. If you feel that you must pass the postcode from one page to another, remember that the browser won't automatically do things like replacing spaces with %20, like it would if you typed the URL into its address bar. So if you're dealing with a country that allows spaces in the postcodes you'll need to do the conversion yourself. -- Mike Williams http://econym.org.uk/gmap --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
