[never trust a geocoder...] 1. If you know where it is, why are you geocoding it again? 2. When I geocode "SN67AG, UK", I get what I think you believe are the correct results: http://www.geocodezip.com/example_geo2.asp?addr1=SN67AG,%20UK&geocode=1 3. When I geocode the "address" in your page: "40 High Street,Highworth,Swindon,Wiltshire,SN6 7AQ, UK" http://www.geocodezip.com/example_geo2.asp?addr1=40%20High%20Street,Highworth,Swindon,Wiltshire,SN6%207AQ,%20UK&geocode=1 I get: [ 0 ]: High St, Wanborough, Swindon SN4 0, UK (51.548427, -1.694264) 4. The "coordinates" that I see in the code on your page seem to be correct: 51.630057630497,-1.71100553235115 http://www.geocodezip.com/example_geo2.asp?addr1=(51.630057630497,-1.71100553235115)&geocode=1 Why are you using the geocoder and not the "know good" coordinates? -- Larry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
