[== snip, snip ==] FWIW, here is the formula needed, here just a snippet getting the distance between two ZIP's, and, yes, Virginia, you have to have the latitude and longitude in radians: #== construct the computed distance field (artificial field) == $dist = "(ACOS(SIN($this->LAST_LAT) * "; $dist .= "SIN(LatRad) + "; $dist .= "COS($this->LAST_LAT) * "; $dist .= "COS(LatRad) * "; $dist .= "COS(LongRad -$this->LAST_LONG)) *"; $dist .= "3958.88012572)"; For this snippet, consider LAST_LAT and LAST_LONG the "first point" in this spherical geometry solution, nicely all done by MySQL. But you can do the formula in PHP, if you wish. -- > > >On Mon, 23 Jul 2001, Vincent P.
