Hello All, I've got a PHP script that gets Longitude and Latitude values...then inputs them into a MySQL query. I'd really like to make it solely MySQL.
Live site can be found at http://MotoListr.com
Here's my current PHP Code:
if ($distance != "Any" && $customer_zip != "") { //get the great circle distance
//get the origin zip code info
$zip_sql = "SELECT * FROM zip_code WHERE zip_code = '$customer_zip'";
$result = mysql_query($zip_sql);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$origin_lat = $row['lat'];
$origin_lon = $row['lon'];
//get the range
$lat_range = $distance/69.172;
$lon_range = abs($distance/(cos($details[0]) * 69.172));
$min_lat = number_format($origin_lat - $lat_range, "4", ".", "");
$max_lat = number_format($origin_lat + $lat_range, "4", ".", "");
$min_lon = number_format($origin_lon - $lon_range, "4", ".", "");
$max_lon = number_format($origin_lon + $lon_range, "4", ".", "");
$sql .= "lat BETWEEN '$min_lat' AND '$max_lat' AND lon BETWEEN '$min_lon' AND '$max_lon' AND ";
}
Does anyone know how to make this entirely MySQL? I've browsed the internet a bit but most of the literature on it is pretty confusing.
Best, Nick
