This will work if you have placed the correct address. it would be better if you find lat and long based on Post code/Zip code…

What was your query string?

Try like this http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=35005%20&output=xml (You need to Reload this url, don’t know why to see the result)

This will give you in XML format. You can test just by pasting in browser url box. The code is just to set the query string and read CSV. Should work! I’ve tested it already. Just check your query string.

Thanks.

I think you might have mis-requested zip codes !

Hi Subesh,

I have used your script in my project but sometimes it returns Latitude and Longitude as 0, 0 for few locations.

When these locations are searched at Google Map then there are User Created Pointers shown which indicate the location.

Could you help me resolve this issue that what whould be done when Latitudw and Longitude are returned as 0, 0.

Thanks in advance.
