I'm investigating an interesting problem and could use some help.
I have a database site ( http://artandcraftshows.net ) which allows
visitors to search for upcoming events by dates, city, state, and
region. But because many visitors are exhibitors, one of their prime
concerns is to locate shows within a certain distance of their home
base.
What I'd like to do is incorporate some method of doing a proximity
search. That is, to allow searchers to specify something like "within
100 miles of Miami, FL" instead of having to use just "in Florida" and
then try to relate the results to how close to them the shows are.
Anybody got suggestions about how to accomplish this?
