About 6 months ago, I programmed a dealer locator, based off the store locator examples given in the documentation. It's programmed in php/ mysql and javascript. Addresses of retail stores are geocoded and the coordinates stored in a mysql database, then retrieved in XML format and displayed on the map.
This was created for a client, and seemed to be working fine previously. Recently, though, they are getting a flood of calls, primarily from macintosh users, whose searches are not retrieving results. I have experienced this problem one time on a pc, in google chrome, of all things, but have not been able to reproduce it. I have verified that it is a legitimate problem on a mac. I have checked on 4 macbooks, in both safari and firefox, using a verified address that should return results. I am at a loss. Since I wrote this right after APIv3 was released, I'm assuming there have been various bug fixes to the API. Is this a known issue? Is there a known workaround? I've searched this forum, and come up empty handed. If I could get y'all to take a look at this, I would really appreciate it. I have stripped the code out of their website for trouble-shooting purposes. A working (sometimes) demo can be found here: http://www.blainesanders.com/dealerlocator/ If you enter the zip code 84770 in the search box, with a 50 mile radius, you should see 2 results. If that worked for you, try searching Las Vegas, NV. If you kept your radius at 50 miles, you will not find a dealer, and will see a javascript alert telling you to check your address and/or increase the search radius. Increasing your radius to 250 miles will retrieve results on the las vegas search. If you're on a mac, chances are you will get the javascript alert no matter what you search on. If you need php code, please let me know. You can see all the javascript by viewing the source of the page. If it helps, you can verify the XML by going here: http://www.blainesanders.com/dealerlocator/genxml2.php?lat=37.088485&lng=-113.557338&radius=50 I look forward for your responses.
