[Google Maps API v2] Re: Google maps using Mysql.

Hi
If you are going down the MySQL route see http://davie.easypagez.com/maps/map1.php
This is based on http://code.google.com/intl/el-GR/apis/maps/articles/phpsqlsearch.html
The data is only for UK
Data for other locations can be found at http://download.geonames.org/export/dump/
This approach will probably end up with a huge database so i think
your best approach is to use geocoding http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/v2/
You can build up your request from your drop down boxes.
Regards Davie
