The geolocation API does require the user's permission to send right? That bluevia api thing looks interesting. Any idea if there's a cost involved? Thanks On Monday, June 18, 2012 5:41:15 AM UTC-5, James Mclean wrote: > > Most recent devices support the geolocation API. Take a look here to fi

Well the example I just posted does exactly that. Actully not quite, its not talking to a mysql database, its actully using sphinxsearch as the 'database'. You need a 'API' that accepts parameters by URL, performs the search, and then returns the results back to the application. Its old, but htt

Hi, Barry. Cool example! Short of a full-blown tutorial, I'm interested in seeing an example page of HTML code, including the code for the Google Maps API, that: - Lets you get a route from A to B. - Uses the Routeboxer method. - Runs this method against a MySQL source in order to displ

The example on the documentation page http://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/routeboxer/docs/examples.html shows how to loop though the 'boxes' retured from the boxer call. You would probably fire off a ajax request off to your server, which would perform a bounding box s

Michael, Can you provide instructions for step 3? I have scoured the web for an example of Routeboxer in action so that I can build a tool that will let people map from "A" to "B" and find POIs within a certain distance. I've copied the Google code and recreated it, but all I get is a map with
