RE: [PHP] Zip Code Locator?
Hey, let me know if you figure out what the extra numbers are for... I might have a use for this at some point. The last two numbers are latitude and longitude of the registered zip code center for the given zip code. --- Brian S.

Re: [PHP] Zip Code Locator?
You could write your own. . . Just kidding... well, technically you could... but... that's not the point. http://sourceforge.net/projects/zipcodedb has a Raw ZIP code dump... It has a little more data than just zip, city, state... I don't know what it means, but maybe you would... Sorry, it's the best I could do = Ben On Mon, 23 Jul 2001, Vincent P.

[== snip, snip ==] FWIW, here is the formula needed, here just a snippet getting the distance between two ZIP's, and, yes, Virginia, you have to have the latitude and longitude in radians: #== construct the computed distance field (artificial field) == $dist = (ACOS(SIN($this-LAST_LAT) * ; $dist .= SIN(LatRad) + ; $dist .= COS($this-LAST_LAT) * ; $dist .= COS(LatRad) * ; $dist .= COS(LongRad -$this-LAST_LONG)) *; $dist .= 3958.88012572); For this snippet, consider LAST_LAT and LAST_LONG the first point in this spherical geometry solution, nicely all done by MySQL. But you can do the formula in PHP, if you wish. -- On Mon, 23 Jul 2001, Vincent P. Cocciolone wrote: Hi, Does anyone know where can I find documentation or example scripts for a zip code locator.
