To Ray: no it isn't. custom code.

To Tony: I can do geo code lookups fro free with Google's API ... just
limited to how many a day.


Sample code for the geocode is here. It's a JavaScript function. If I pull
the data out of the DB .. and want to show the resulting map on the page,
without the submission of a form to do so ...

Is the call to the function as easy as this:

    function initialize() {
      if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
        map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
        map.setCenter(new GLatLng(37.4419, -122.1419), 13);
        geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
      }
    }

    function showAddress(address) {
      if (geocoder) {
        geocoder.getLatLng(
          address,
          function(point) {
            if (!point) {
              alert(address + " not found");
            } else {
              map.setCenter(point, 13);
              var marker = new GMarker(point);
              map.addOverlay(marker);
              marker.openInfoWindowHtml(address);
            }
          }
        );
      }
    }
    </script>
  </head>

  <body onload="initialize()" onunload="GUnload()">
    <form action="#" onsubmit="showAddress(this.address.value); return false">
      <p>
        <input type="text" size="60" name="address" value="1600
Amphitheatre Pky, Mountain View, CA" />
        <input type="submit" value="Go!" />
      </p>
      <div id="map_canvas" style="width: 500px; height: 300px"></div>
    </form>

  </body>
</html>


since Im not even close to being a JS guru - im lost as to how to
force it to show the address.
