Hi,
Is it possible to have shared memory in the form of shared global variables
in PHP? Or any other form of shared memory? And if that is the case, is
there any form of mutex functionality which may be used to assure
syncronized access to this memory?

Hi Shiplu,
For all that you mentioned, and if you want to get a quite good suggestion,
I will highly recommend that you read through McConnell's Code Complete (2nd
Edition).
Specifically:
Chapter 31: Layout and Style
Chapter 32: Self-Documenting Code (Commenting Techniques)
It won't disappoint
Has anyone tried to work this out?
All I'm trying to get is the rough distance in miles between two UK
postcodes using Google Maps API for a basic auto quote script based on
mileage travelled.
I thought it would be easy but it seems that I need to convert each postcode
to Lat/Long using Geocoding
