Can I custom set the size of the circle (as in a 5 mile or 2 mile circle)? If so, will I also be able to capture the distance variable and use it on my website?

You can't use Google's mapping services without showing the results on a map. If all you're doing is providing "x miles away" information, then you might be able to do much the same thing by using a map and drawing a circle around your user's location (which they know, of course: no privacy issues with that marker). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
