http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/xml?origins=90254 <http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/xml?origins=90254&destin ations=92656&sensor=false> &destinations=92656&sensor=false gives me these results: <DistanceMatrixResponse> <status>OK</status> <origin_address>Hermosa Beach, CA 90254, USA</origin_address> <destination_address>Aliso Viejo, CA 92656, USA</destination_address> <row> <element><status>OK</status> <duration><value>3861</value> <text>1 hour 4 mins</text></duration> <distance><value>78138</value> <text>78.1 km</text></distance></element> </row> </DistanceMatrixResponse> I will use the <distance><value>78138</value><text>78.1 km</text></distance> information for my display query, to ensure just the people within the desired dating range show on the page. - - - How can I grab just the City name and State from each variable provided? Do I use an array command to break the origin down using comma separation (I'm using php)? What I want is to just display the City and State as a hyperlink on the page.. When clicked it will bring the map up to show distance. <origin_address>Hermosa Beach, CA 90254, USA</origin_address> <destination_address>Aliso Viejo, CA 92656, USA</destination_address> Am I on the right track?
